I’ve legit seen Aussies going past swaddled up at only 15 degrees. That’s not even cold yet, lad.

    As a Canadian, like how this only goes down to -20c, meanwhile we went below -40c in plenty of areas this winter.

    I was thinking the same about it only going up to 40C. It's forecast for 48C here tomorrow. To be fair that is unusually warm.

    I used to live in Texas. 40c days were fairly common. A bit warm, but not enough to stop us from enjoying the outdoors. Now I live in Wyoming and -20c is barely barely considered nippy. It's crazy what the human body can get accustomed to.

    I farm on the Canadian Prairies and I don't even own a set of long-johns. You can put me in the -30 square wearing a flannel shirt.

    I am fucked when it gets over +25C though. I hate it so much.

    I would take -40 over +40 on any day.

    I've been in Canada in the summer, they seemed to tolerate 30°C better than northern europeans
