Forecasters warned of "extremely dangerous" wind chills tonight -- as low as 45 degrees below zero -- for the northeastern U.S. "These values can produce frostbite in under 15 minutes," a National Weather Service advisory said. From CNN Burr |

Haven't heard anything close to that on the local weather reports here.. (they give temps for Mongolia, Siberia, and points west). |
Maximus wrote: In Siberia, it gets to -100 frequently, and God knows what the wind chill for THAT would be LOL.So cold that tires shatter .... Siberia is colder than brass underwear in the winter, no question. But unless their record has been broken recently, the coldest still air temp ever recorded there was -98 Farenheit. 5W30 motor oil turns to stiff caramel at -35 Farenheit, and tires shatter at -50 Farenheit. It's stretching it a bit to say Siberia "gets to -100 frequently", though.

You'd make an excellent reporter. Take a story and make it into what you
want. 1/4 mile from home? The article states "just around the corner". whatever that really means. Froze to death? It says she was found under the snow by her car. It would have to be about -100 for you to freeze to death in that short of a distance. More likely slipped on the ice, hurt herself and couldn't get up. Yes, she probably did freeze to death but not because it was so cold you would freeze to death in minutes. I have been in cold like that, living in tents, outside most of the day. It's not that bad.

Read the article; then reread it,
