Not! I've personally seen 58F, and I've only been here for 25 years. But your close, it caused me to have to go out an buy and electric heater. Turning on the oven only warmed up the kitchen.

What's the big deal about 20F? You have to put a coat on?

... you blow soap bubbles outside and they crinkle, shrink and freeze into weird shapes before hitting the snow. Needs to be below minus 25 C.

You take the dog for a walk at night and realize that you've been standing in one place and lost in your own world for at least 5 minutes (whilst listening to a particularly gripping part of your audiobook - on your Nano) and look down to see why he is taking such a looooong whizz, only to realize he his paws have frozen to the pavement and he can't move .

women walk around on frozen ground/snow-covered, in high heels [okay I kinda see some logic in a sharp point in the heel!] or alternatively in small flat thin shoes; not forgetting hot-pants and mini-skirts, as I saw yesterday in the city!!!!.

Also when my fingers, thumbs and parts of my hands turn white,red/blue/purple indoors (good job I can't see my toes!).
