Hmmmph....balmy/clammy-5? We call that springtime in these parts. It's going to -29 tonight with a gentle 15km breeze that is supposed to make it feel like -40. But thats OK, cause a car will only go to the -29...it'll just get there quicker.


There is no substitute for true cold.....when you reach for the 50 cal charging handle and it snaps in your hand. Or when the fuel pumps on the older cars, being slightly external to the block, gum up and freeze with condensation. You tow them inside for an hour until you hear the snap of the diaphragm spring kicking in, then you do it all over again.


The arctic is another story. The air is dense, and when the snow or ice cracks, it echoes.
