-30 C this morning, we're making ice now!

[Yukoner]

And, it's about time.  How about where you are?

[rrw]

26 degrees in spooner wisconsin we are also making ice ice ice ice lets hear it.

[esox_xtm]

Color me green with envy........... Here in SE WI we've got some skim ice in the bays but are likely to lose it this weekend with the forecasted warm front and showers.

If I can walk on by Christmas I'll count myself lucky.

[hoosier-iceman]

Overnight lows in Syracuse, IN have been in the mid to upper twenties but that is changing for the worse as the week goes on.

[captain54]

It's going to 22 tonight in Pa. I've seen some small ponds skiffing. I don't have to worry about my deer tonight,I shot a 8pt this morning,bring on the cold weather.

[Drifter_016]

Frosty here.
Currently -35 with the wind chill.   
Warming up to a balmy -19 by next Thursday.    

[Loudmouth879]

-30C is what in Fahrenheit  lets see (-30(9))/5 + 32= -54+32 so thats... carry the 4 and  -22F wow did that all in my head.... anyway it is currently 30F here which means its ((30-32)x5)/9=~-1C yea not cold enough when the highs are in the upper 30's lower 40's

[Idahogator]

Jeez, you guy's cornerin' the market on good weather?             Yukoner, Dave, sharing makes for good neighbors, so send it on down south. Thanks.
If you see or feel a Blue Norther headed our way give us a heads-up.   

[Big Burk]

Its -22c. Here now and we have already gotten more snow this year than last winter. The snowmobiles have over 100 miles on them already compared to 15 miles in total last winter. It hasn't gotten colder than -35 yet but that should change in the next week or two.

[Smax]

Grrrrrr going into the 40s this weekend here   

[iced]

Just spent two days camping and fishing at -30F the high was -20F. The lake was a cracking and popping as the ice expanded all day and night.

Or you could just go here: http://www.worldwidemetric.com/measurements.html and punch in what you want coverted.   

[petrgill]

In other words, it's witch tit cold!

But that takes the fun out of using what we learned in Science Class years ago! Don't want to upset the teachers.

I like ice, but you can keep your -30 I'm happy when it is in the + teens F.

Now that's a laugh! When I was in 5th grade science class (lessee, that's 58 - 11 = 47 and 2012 - 47 =) ohhhh like 1965 we were told we HAD to learn metric because within a few years it would all be liters, meters, and Celsius.

So here's the calc for temp conversion:

Formula for conversion from celsius to fahrenheit:
F = ((9/5) * C) + 32

Formula for conversion from fahrenheit to celsius:
C = (5/9)*(F-32)

Even better than that ('cause I didn't listen much in science class in those days) is one of my favorite sites. Convert what ever you want....

Anyway, -30C = -22F, still pretty frosty.......

/m

[eriksat1]

I just remember zero c is +32 f .... and at around minus -40 c is about the same as minus -40 f.

[laclabiche walleye hunter]

-27c in northern alberta canada as i type this. And a couple feet of snow.

[panfishman13]

lows of 22 F, highs of 54 F.

not exactly ice weather. 

[Drifter_016]

-30 right now in Yellerknife.
Luckily the winds are near calm so it's only -36 windchill.    

[coboy]

6 F for a low this morning. Highs in the 50's.

[Fishrmn]

Wind chill doesn't change the temperature.  It feels colder to exposed skin, but the temperature isn't affected by the wind.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_chill

As a surface heats the air around it, an insulating boundary layer of warm air forms against the surface. Moving air disrupts the boundary layer, allowing for new, cooler air to replace the warm air against the surface. The faster the wind speed, the more readily the surface cools.

[Yukoner]

Just headin' to bed, and it's -34C.  Not a breath of wind....thankfully.

Ted

[Big Burk]

Its -20 here now, wish it was a bit colder but I guess I can settle for the temps we have been getting.

To the ambient temperature.  It doesn't lower the temperature.

[bigredonice]

Drifter, send some of that arctic cold air down here!!

[Drifter_016]

True but it does effect your comfort level when out fishing or changing a flat tire on the side of the road.
It also effects your safety with the risk of hypothermia and frostbite increased.   

[Fishrmn]

Too true!
