What's the coldest weather you've ever been exposed to?

So I'm curious as to what is the coldest weather you guys and gals have been exposed to? Living in Alaska, I've been exposed to some pretty cold weather during the winter. However, nothing can beat the -80 with wind-chill from this past January. We had a couple of weeks where it was very very cold and windy. It did a lot of damage to buildings and houses. We had hurricane force winds too which caused a lot of vehicles and signs and other structures to be blown over or damaged
Here's some pics of that that I braved one day to take.

Nothing that cold or crazy. -22 in North Dakota one winter years ago. Wind chill down to -35 for a brief period.

@Lilnonames that's crazy. All I can say is I'm glad that we have a garage and our heater is in that garage. I was only out for a little over 20 minutes before I had my dashboard light up like a Christmas tree lol so I immediately drove back home

@Lilnonames that's good that he was able to help you out. That was one thing that impressed us when we lived there, how nice and helpful people in the Midwest are 😊

@SW-User yes snow was so high only thing you saw was the stacks of the semi trucks. I never saw such huge plows. To get through snow drifts
SW-User
@Lilnonames yeah they can seem daunting. We have those kinds of snow plows up here. Glad that you made it out okay ☺️
