Exactly, piano2.

The winter of 96' that I lived in Glennallen was like that.

30 days or better of negative 50, so much so that the Copper Basin 300 was cancelled because it was too cold for the dogs, as upon the scheduled day of the start, it was an ambient 72 below.

It suddenly warmed up to zero degrees F, and we were walking around in short sleeves for a short time.

Cold, so within that context, is relative.
