Here in northern NY, we'll get a couple of days of -40 every winter. About 15 years ago, our barn thermometer said -58 one nippy morning. From experience, I know that this particular thermometer is off about 5 degrees, so it was probably "only" about -53. During college, we walked about a mile and a half back from a bar one night when the thermometer on the bank read -47. NOT an experience I'd recommend, regardless of the amount of "anti-freeze" you've got on board! Seemed like a good idea at the time, though. It could be worse--rumor has it that at the research station in Anarctica, they have the "300 club". You go in the sauna, then have your picture taken standing by the South Pole marker. If the temperature difference isn't at least 300 degrees, you don't qualify....
