Celsius 
When winter sets in, it can be very pleasant at minus 3, minus 10 even, because of the dry continental climate. However, at minus 25 you start to feel a bit less like going for a walk in the park and it can get down to minus 35 and worse
Very similar to Edmonton, I think - having spent a couple of winters in Calgary. Also dry cold, but when it's below -30 or so, it's just too cold to be outdoors. |

centigrade or ferenheit? |
Centigrade, but here are the conversions from C to Fahrenheit:
minus 3 C = 27 F; minus 10 C = 14 F; minus 25 C = minus 13 F;
minus 35 C = minus 31 F.
The temperatures converge at very low temperatures. E.g. minus 45 C (which it can get down to) is minus 49 F. I guess they freeze together.. |
