that's when it starts to get 'cold'. before that, it's just a 'little chilly'.

Found the Scandinavian?

I know this is a joke but as a Minnesotan I think right around -15°F (-26°c) is where it starts to get 'cold'. This is where the air really begins to sting your face and people have issues starting their vehicles.

am a native and lived there most my life. only had problems with my piece-of-shit cars when it got colder than -20F or so. block heater (on a timer) and a newish-battery and they always started, though, even during that record cold snap (-60F).

-40 is fucking freezing in C 😂. Should be even worse in F 😂.

-40 c is equal to -40 f it's a bit chilly probably want 3 layers top and bottom there

And a space heater direct right at you 😂.

[–] Still 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

no, you absolutely do not want a space heater when dealing with cold.

Hm, why? I use one all the time.

can cause you to sweat which will lead to your jackets becoming ineffective leading to hypothermia

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Ummm... yeah, you just turn it off if you're hot...

The worst part is that vodka freezes right in the plastic cups. It's not fun to drink vodka with icy mush.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

You drink Russian vodka. Made with ethylene glycol. Is antifreeze. No vodka ice!

🤔 🤣... ummm... i've drank wine half frozen wine from a cup at -30C 🤣... not fun, but it kept us warm that night 🤣. too bad we didn't have vodka at 3AM 🤣.

I think we drank like 10L of wine that night 🤣. Vodka would've been more efficient 🤣.
