-20C is brutally cold, far colder than any coldest winter day I ever experienced while living in the northeast USA.
- fy20 4y agoWhere I live we usually have that for at least two weeks during winter, and the rest of the time hovering around -10C (for two to three months). We don't have much snow though, and little wind, so it's really not that bad if you are dressed properly.
- Tade0 4y agoMan oh man you wouldn't enjoy eastern Europe in the 90s. Aside from the general post-communism, we had -30C cold snaps. But yeah, snot freezes at around -18C - I consider this the point at which things become universally unpleasant regardless how prepared you are. That being said during a cold snap of -22C I saw my neighbours struggle to start their ICE cars while my hybrid just brutally kicked the engine into action.
