Indoor temperatures don't count. I'm talking about the weather.

Coldest for me was probably 14°C (I live in a tropical country) and the hottest was 48°C when i was traveling in June this year.

I've been outside working in -34° C, and likewise 54.4° C. That's -30° F and 130° F for those of us who use imperial.

The negative temp was Alaska, and the high positive was the Arabian Gulf. Good times.

I'm close to you. 118F in Colorado, -30 in Chicago during the polar vortex. I had icicles in my beard within minutes, it was gnarly.

Hottest was 122°F (50°C), a record heat day in Mesa, AZ.

Coldest was in Indiana during the polar vortex of 2019, -45°F (-42°C).

The world is a crazy fucking place.

I suppose you've never seen snow then? Definitely try if you get some chance. I wish it snowed more often where I live.

I have no idea what the coolest temp has been for me, but probably around -10C?

[-] impulse@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Coldest was probably -20 °C, hottest around 40 °C.

My comfort temperature is right around 15 °C. Anything higher than 20 °C and I start sweating.

My girlfriend wants to go to Egypt for vacation this year. That's going to be fun...

I start shivering below 22°C lol

do birds fly? do ducks duck?

Hottest would be 41°C, in 2003 and last year (France)

Coldest, -35°C, Québec Carnaval in 2016. I stayed about two hours in that temperature, I started to have cold burn in my fingers and my toes.

Would take -35 over 41 all day.

I know you said indoor temperatures don’t count, but my low is kinda fun: -110c for three minutes (cryotherapy). Outdoor was 48c (local thermometer said higher) in northern Western Australia.

I know nothing about cryotherapy: were you awake for that?? What was the experience like?

[-] squi@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah, awake. Stood in a giant freezer wearing only shorts, socks and a mask. It’s a way to enhance healing by encouraging white blood cell production via shocking the system through lowering skin temp rapidly. Very good for muscular issues, arthritis, etc. I just did it once for fun, but I could really go for a bulk set sessions… getting old.
