Our winters here aren't much better. We hit -50C for 2 weeks last winter. The only benefit, I suppose is that we get a lot of sun during the winter, as we're in a rain shadow.
And I thought -6C was cold, fuck me.
To be fair, I honestly found that manageable with just a work uniform and an extra long sleeved shirt.
Ehh there's not much difference between -6 and-18 you can get warm by doing whatever activity. Somehow -3 to +3 is the hardest to stay warm in. Too much moisture in the air. Below-18 is where the dry cold starts to be tough.
Yeah 0F is -18 and that’s when your Moses starts to stick together when you breath in.
You’re apparently better off swallowing your snot too, since it’s largely condensed water vapor from your own lungs and you’ll dehydrate slower.
