Compre I doh know how long u livingin TO,
but if you doh know about a minus 70, no prob. It was my only time in 14 yrs.
But if you remember -40 in 1994, and according to P, Wikipedia say TO never had weather like that, well I remember the odd -50 and lower.
Let me tell you when you have to take the bus systemd and wait for dat bitch in de cold, these temperatures are embedded in your memory.
VB
VB, ah start to do more in depth research because yuh say does cold dats embedded in your memory.
So I went to Environment Canada web site where they have all de historical data on line.
So I checked Jan 1994. Your memory that that was one of the coldest months is correct. It had two days of -28.4 and -31.0 C in the early morning at de airport. It also posted WC on an hourly basis. On de first day, the WC ranged between -30 and -40. On de second day, de coldest WC was -40
So your memory that it was damn cold in 1994 is 100% correct.But it was less than what you actually thought .. WC was warmer that -40C. It never hit -50 in 1994.
I suppose when yuh waiting for a TTC bus in de cold, and de wind blowing in yuh face, is cold it cold oui.
Check out the website.

<addendum> VB, in 2000 or so, the equation used to calculate Wind Chill was modified so the data I quoting reflects that new equation. Mite be that prior to 2000, de WC numbers floated would not be reflected in de data. So yuh recollection mite be based on de old equation.
