You're so lucky!
I'm in Toronto with barely anything and -5 or something. I think I'm the only one who would like -42 year round with snow. I can take the cold but not the heat. Everytime I go to Singapore to visit family the heat nearly kills me. Great food though.
So that is about -41 Celsius... impressive
I experienced temperatures close to that in Chicago some years back. This is extreme.
Wow! It’s cold today in the north-east of England, about 1C but...
...I can’t begin to imagine what -42F feels like and looking at that picture, I’ve just pulled my chair a little closer to the fire. Regards Kev.
Time for a bourbon and blanket!
This is the polar vortex 2021? Expecting it here in Chicago soon... and it Is already cold enough...
It begs the question: what is the all time cold weather watch!?!?
I will ante up with the Speedmaster Alaska Project...
I ended up with a Sinn EZM3

Yeah, seen it
our one holiday to Disneyland with the kids was in February. The weather was like early fall at home so we wandered around in shorts and T-shirts while the natives wore their puffy coats! No crowds, though, so I went on Space Mountain five times in a row....

survived the polar vortex in our camper
on a mad whim we went to Lake Louise with our camper for some skiing and snowshoe hikes. Temps -35 to -38 overnight for a week. Had the entire campground to ourselves for a couple of nights but as the weekend approached a few other hardy souls showed up. ...
Diametrically opposed
I guess we are opposites my friend I can't take +41 but -41 is great!!!!!
Impressive.
This week i was outside just wearing a pull at minus 10 C ... after about 5 minutes i called it a day. With the correct clothes it’s actually no problem ... but minus 40 ? No waay i can survive that. Even the dog prefers to stay inside 😁. ...
