In Louisiana...
During the '89 freeze, it didn't get over freezing for three days...
It had three nights in the low 20's.
Lake Pontchartrain froze.

For me -11F in KY back in the 80's. This was when all those people in the country that put Heat Pumps in for energy saving found out that they dont work in temps that low and the duct heater strips were woefully inadequate. Everybody had to get indoor grade kerosene heaters
Worst I have had to work in was 10 deg F

Paducah, Kentucky ice storm/storm work in 2009.
My many relatives up there thank you for your service!
I did not even know it had happened until a few days after when I saw pics on the USAtoday website of my old neighborhood.

It was so cold in Gunnison,CO once that it froze our Jeep and it had to get towed into a shop to thaw out. I think it was like -45.

-41 degrees in Cavalier, ND. Wind was 45 mph. Wind chill then (circa 1990) was -116. The scale has been changed since and it would only be -75 or so today.

Not coldest exactly, but tent camping at 15° in the Rockies with an inadequate bag was quite cold. That was a long night.

I couldn’t walk around hardly.

That one was pretty brutal because of all of the ice. We lost power for almost a week for that one. Stayed at my grandmother’s for a few days because her neighbor had a generator that was able to heat 3 houses. My parents finally got a generator after that one.
Coldest personally was -22 (surface temp, not windchill) in 1994 when we got about 18 inches of snow. They couldn’t clear much of anything because we never get snow like that and it wasn’t really expected to be that bad. The city pretty much shut down for about two weeks. Thankfully we never lost power.
