Lots of snow and a bit of cool weather the other day as well in my back yard
YES - that is Fahrenheit
Celsius conversion would be -36.67

Wow :o I was climbing in The Grey Corries, Scottish Highlands one January about 10 years ago and it was -21C which was quite bracing :cry:
Oh that's cold, my pb, on Dartmoor, was only -9, however the 70+ mph storm took it down to -22 C wind chill. Plus the snow blizzard, made it even more fun. :lol: Hard to breath due to ice forming a solid wall through my wollen scalf than day.

I use a synthetic buff, out in the cold, since then. :)

Still pretty down low, out of that wind though.

Superb stuff. I love being out in the elements on days like those. That day in The Grey Corries it got progressively colder and the east wind stronger until my cousin Matt and I both decided it was getting too dicey :cry: I remember having frost (frozen perspiration vapour) on the INSIDE of my mountain jacket and when I tried to put my ice axe down I couldn't....it was frozen to my glove ! Three hours later and back down at the bothy I still couldn't get my crampons off my boots for frozen ice and snow :o
