20 inches actually stupid: but it was fun..ill post pics later biggrin:

i'm from Calgary... ALBERTA, CANADA

are you fucking kidding me???? MY GOD THAT'S COLD.

i just realized..

gravedigger, when you dig my grave

i was reading this thread, then i saw my post, and i was like wtf i didn;t post here

yes fucking christ

I think it's colder today than it was yesterday. It says -37C for tomorrow morning. That's without the windchill. Would probably be like -50C or so with windchill.

45 F here right now in michigan...it snowed and was cold all weekend

Maybe this will make me feel better. It's 242 kelvin! A warm 242 degrees away from absolute zero!

CHEMISTRY RAWKS!!

-50F is even possible?

-1F is enough to freeze water in like 15 minutes...

you wouldn't last like 5 minutes outside

-50 is absolutely possible
3 or 4 years ago it was -40f(-40c) for 3 weeks strait up here.*





















*At some points this was do to a windchill.

Coldest temperature physically possible is about -460F or -273C. That is absolute zero (0 K) which is the absence of thermal energy. Basically no atoms move at all. I don't think it is physically possible to remove all thermal energy, but they have gotten extremely close. Like to 0.0001 of a degree within absolute zero. That's called the Bose–Einstein condensate which was just on NOVA about 2 weeks ago.

Space is about 2.7K which is -454F, or -270C.

On earth coldest temp recorded was -89C, which is -128F or 183K in Antarctica. So -40 or -50 on the Canadian prairies isn't that unheard of.

CHEMISTRY RAWKS
