Yep, Calgary, Alberta. I wager that the folks from northern Montana have the same weather as us.

- cmrdporcupine 10y agoI grew up in Edmonton and you have to be honest, -35C is an extreme temperature that is only rarely reached. Almost every winter gets to -20C or -25C but -35C can happen but isn't an every winter let alone every day occurrence. And anyways... it's a dry cold :-) Winters here in southern Ontario are fairly mild but they feel worse to me than where I grew up. A damp -10C is just awful, so hard to get rid of the cold feeling everywhere.
- mmastrac 10y agoIt's usually the deepest part of the winter - I think we'll usually get one week where it's -30 and dips (occasionally) beyond, with the rest of winter being -25C at its coldest.
- dasil003 10y agoNorth Dakota and Minnesota are colder than Montana (at lower elevations too). Take a look at the climate data for Fargo, ND for instance, significantly colder than Calgary. It's colder because it's more continental, and you often see a big bubble of arctic air dipping down on the weather map.
- dreamsofdragons 10y agoCalgary is a bit of an outlier, they get a weather phenomena called chinooks. It's not uncommon for them to get several periods throughout the winter where their temperatures are above freezing due to these chinooks.
