Are you guys familiar with temperatures in Celcius?

If so, it's right about 35 below zero here. That's the kind of cold that will freeze you to death in less time than it takes to update your twitter to say "It's fucking cold out!". What a nightmare! Sure, it looks idyllic, but touching a car door or a door handle will leave you scarred for life!  
So I'm staying inside playing A boy and his blob. Great game! Great, calm game!  Sort of game that can idle in the background, and gently squeeze the life out of hours and hours. A silent killer, as it were!
 
A good weekend to all of y'all!

It's a nice 25 here where I live, I have a pair of shorts on and a t-shirt, Bacardi on ice with a cherry,  
 
Really nice and a good breeze,  
 
I do feel for all of you in extreme cold weather though, you should move to NZ, BEAutiful,

No shit it's warm. It's actually kinda perfect. Just because you guys choose to freeze your balls off doesn't mean we all do.

An obvious fact is though that it is happening at a much faster rate then it has been before, that's just obvious, and that we are the ones to blame..people like you think that putting all of these gases from cars and giant factories has absolutely no effect on the earth at all when it's clear that it does have an impact.

We can always cancel it out with nuclear winter if it gets too bad, so why not? I'm going to go idle my car for a few hours in the driveway.

The last time one of these cycles actually happened, there was no real form of science to document the changes. That alone makes the 'scientists' saying that it is happening faster this time appear to be ignorant and gullible people. As more and more real science comes out to prove these treehuggers wrong, it only gets worse for you buddy.

I dunno how cold it's got in the night here, but in the days I reckon -4 was the worst. I live in quite an isolated area, mind, so that makes things very awkward.

It's cold out, you should run it in the garage where it's warm. Make sure you stay in the garage to make sure the car doesn't roll away.

Jumping between -10 and -25 here.
 
At -20 younger students don't have to go to school, and it has consistently been -25 for a while now.

What the fuck happened to global warming? :(
It's been around minus 15-20 degrees C here in Karlstad, Sweden for the last few days. Got myself a nice 40C fever from walking without extra pants the other night..

Last night it was -10. 
That's freezing cold to our standards. 
But to answer your question, yes, we use Celsius over here.

The weather is freezing in the UK at the moment. It's been getting under -20°C in some places - which is unheard of here. It never gets this cold. And never for this long.

Add a swede to the list. I'm from Malmö (southern Sweden) and it's around -3 C' here. But down here by the sea it's get's cold quite quickly because of high moisture grades and lots of wind. I know people from Umeccrrxxxhhhtth!!!! (laughed hard during the Bombcast!) that live here now and even they find it cold because of the wind and flat land. Yesterday it felt like my face was about to go numb and that my eyebrows would break. It's not -35 but it's really cold for people that live here. We usually have 10-15 C and 20-30 during the summer.
