-16 in Billings the week of Thanksgiving in 1993. I sat in my brother's basement and watched Leon Lett touch the missed field goal, and cause the Cowboys to lose to Miami in the snow. Always really easy to remember because I lived in Dallas back then. It was cold in Montana, but it wasn't snowing.

I don't know what the wind chill number was, but it was about 19 degrees with freezing rain and steady winds in excess of 20 mph with gusts well over 30 mph and 100% humidity. I was sitting in a metal pipe rack 80 ft off the ground in a South Louisiana Chemical plant for hours. I thought I was going to die.

Nah, Army.

Like the Air Force would spend months on a remote mountain top in tents and port-o-shitters.

Hell it was four weeks before we had our first shower.

It was -30F. Not sure what wind chill was because there were no reporting of this info at that location. Just a thermometer. It maid the big jim and the twins disappear. It happened in the 90's on the other side of the pond. I can't give further info due to secrecy. Sorry.

Mike taking a chill

Champagne & Vodka is always cold



-68 F ambient, 110-120 below wind chill, Nuquisit, AK: The diesel fuel actually gelled up. It is the wind chill that makes it dangerous to bare skin. Throw a steaming cup of coffee in the air and it turns to snow instantly.



No one talks about the cold. Schools only close if it is -55 or below. Winter is fun time - no mosquitos, the AK state bird.

"No such thing as cold weather, only inadequate clothing." True.

The coldest temp ever measured in an inhabited place -98F in Oymyakon Siberia. Yakutsk, a city closest, has similar temps. The road Stalin built with slave labor is called the Road of Bones because 1 man died per yard/meter - 1 million total - and their bones were put in the road bed. That is a stereotype of what people will do to each other for Power & Money.


Gruzdeva became a star overnight

Maybe it is cold outside..not inside.

Yakutsk or yakutia in winter..has a summer

Road of Bones



The coldest temp ever measured on earth: Antarctica, -128.7 F.

Roger, that is a mild day for Beaver Creek & Watson Lake in Feb - Whenever I was there in winter it was about this time of yr and -55. I was having coffee at little Milepost cafe after camping in the Yukon and saw this on the bulletin board: 'Notice, School buses will not run if Temp is below -55F, however, schools will be open and you are expected to be there."

A little cold doesn't stop the railroads.



btw-Those are LP heaters. Not just some diesel lit on fire.

Downtown Chicago.

Right now.

It's about -20, but it's starting to warm up a little. We may get up to -8 today. Wind chill is between -30 and -50 - either way it doesn't make a difference. It's absolutely miserable.

This is the worst weather I've ever seen.

There are no windows, anywhere, that are not covered in ice. It's brutal.
