If you can achieve a sample to have negative volume, Its temperature can be under 0K.

Its minus 22C here right now but it has been sunny in the daytime and there is very little snow

I prefer this to my old home in Newfoundland-- It rarely gets below minus 10C but they get snow and snow and snow-- 2 winters ago there was over 21 feet of snow IIRC ( the most ever recorded and a big reason why I moved)

Twisted isn't it? It's been oddly warm lately. Well, today it was -15C, but that's quite comfortable still.

Hmm ... it got to -18F air temp here last night ... -35F wind chill or so, I believe. Definitely weather to curl up in a quilt in front of the computer with a mug of hot cocoa.

Suffering from ads?

It warmed up a bit today, but yesterday it was about -30 + windchill. Felt like -50. It's a real to joy to scrape the car off in.

Yeah I figured you weren't serious about that -20 K comment.

Anyways I'm tired of it being so warm. My car almost gets too hot with the windows rolled up.

Kelvin is heat measured by atomic motion, so 0K is absolute zero - the point when all atomic motion stops.

Dropping below that would be difficult without violating most known laws of phisics.

I agree wholeheartedly. We're tougher than most because of it, but that's little consolation when you have a frostbitten face...


I always wondered what makes us Midwesterners superior.

Here in eastern Iowa, we're freezing our arses off!

I left my coat at a party last night...so I had to go out and bear the 10 degree + windchill weather today at 9:00 in the morning with nothing but what I was wearing (long sleeve shirt with undershirt and jeans). 10 minute walk to class, 10 minute walk back.

I really hope I can swing by and pick it up before my next class. It's friggin freezing out.

It was about -5 F last night here, with 30 mph winds. They cancelled school today . The people here are wimps. Give 'em a few warm winters, then when we get a normal winter, people can't deal with it.

12.5'c this afternoon acording to my car, Its not fallen below -4'c this year, and the coldest its been in the last 5 years was -11'c one night. I'll be emmigrating to Canada in the next year or so, so I guess I'll need to get use to cold weather.

He had the beer-coat on instead I guess. So he couldn't really be freezing.

And a beer-coat is know to protect people and keep them warm for several hours - even if the weather is really bad.
