Also midwest, and below freezing is fine and below 0 is annoying. This potential -60F windchill through Minnesota on Wednesday is terrifying. The worst I've ever experienced is -40 and it was brutal. https://www.accuweather.com/en/us/national/weather-forecast-maps?day=3 https://www.accuweather.com/en/us/national/weather-forecast-...

Right. MN here. Forecast is for -33, windchill -60. I've been here > 20 years, and can only remember twice when it got to -20s. I'm not sure my car will even start on Thursday morning.

Funny I had the opposite reaction, I live in Minneapolis and if it gets that cold I'm going on a walk, I've been in -45 and wanted to beat my record. But I also do have a large amount of winter gear.

Once the windchill gets beyond -40C/F it doesn't really matter anymore. Any exposed skin is just as frozen. Your eyelashes are still sticking together. It would probably be better to just report it as some sort of "scarf required" zone followed by "scarf required and it might be a bit uncomfortable" zone.
