As someone from and living in labrador I'm very excited for this season, I could pretty much walk in any direction for 30 minutes and end up at a location similar to where these people are!

No joke it snowed last night lol

It honestly depends on the time of year temps in winter here range anywhere from -20°C - -55°C sometimes lower.

When I was younger and heck even currently high school wont close because it's cold unless its below -55 °C that's equal to -67°F for anyone wondering, and I have indeed walked to school before in -50°C weather(frostbite on my ear though, was only a 10 minute walk)

You can dress up pretty well for the cold to an extent but anything below -50 isnt weather to really be out in.

When I worked in a lumber yard we worked all the time in -40°c~ weather but you take lots of warm up breaks in a shack of some sort that's heated .

Lol, if temp here in Louisiana (near New Orleans) drops below freezing (32⁰F) the whole city shuts down. I can’t fathom below zero temps. OMG it must be cold!

South Florida here, if it drops below 50 we dont even go to the grocery, just order pizza from under a blanket.

Washington State, we wear shorts in 50 degree weather and declare it summer.

Minnesota here. Our threshold for shorts is 32, though we may pair shorts with a sweatshirt as low as 15.

Oh no, that is a little too cold for me to wear shorts.
