You soft southerners!
I come from Canada and at "40* below zero, we button up our vests".
Ice burns our fingers and snow is our soft, white grass.
Minus 30 is merely bracing and -20 is ideal for a picnic.
Tch!

Seriously though. I think the world's record low temperature was recorded at Mt. Washington in Maine(?).
Something stupid like -90*. Cold enough to freeze one's eyeballs.
Best to remote everything and stay inside with a cup of cocoa.
