Indoor temperatures don’t count. I’m talking about the weather.
Coldest for me was probably 14°C (I live in a tropical country) and the hottest was 48°C when i was traveling in June this year.
I’ve been outside working in -34° C, and likewise 54.4° C. That’s -30° F and 130° F for those of us who use imperial.
The negative temp was Alaska, and the high positive was the Arabian Gulf. Good times.
I’m close to you. 118F in Colorado, -30 in Chicago during the polar vortex. I had icicles in my beard within minutes, it was gnarly.
Wow. They are both impressive numbers.
My hottest is Australia at about 47c and Germany at about -18c.
Went from one, to a couple of days later the other. Quite the shock. Quite the fun of it all.
Hottest would be 41°C, in 2003 and last year (France)
Coldest, -35°C, Québec Carnaval in 2016. I stayed about two hours in that temperature, I started to have cold burn in my fingers and my toes.
Would take -35 over 41 all day.
Coldest was -44°C when I was working as a northern lights guide in Norway. We’d always take our tour groups to areas with a high likelihood of polar activity, and once the whole coast was widely overcast so that we had to drive almost to the Finnish border. Camped out along the road towards Kilpisjärvi coming from Skibotn (company was based in Tromso).
Hottest was +45°C in Lagos, Nigeria. Used to work there as well for a good while.
-47C skiing in Banff, +42C hiking on Vancouver Island.
That has to be a windchill.
Even if I put on a neoprene mask and scarf, I could only do one run and then had to go into the lodge for half an hour to warm up. It was brutal, but I think I still have a pic of the sign at the lift telling the temperature. They shut down the gondola because they were afraid to put people up on it.
Hottest was just under 54° (128.6°F) in Kuwait. I went for a run just to say I was the only person to go for a run in the hottest day in human history so far.
I think it got down to -29 (-20) in Albany NY one year but I’m looking for colder experiences soon.
Awesome. I’m a 40/-40 runner.
I would love to hear about your prep to run in -40. I mostly tap out at -10C
Coldest would be -60C, warmest about 40C. Funnily enough, these were in the same place (Canada).
47.5° (117.5 F) in Phoenix AZ USA summer.
-11.6° (11 F) in Flagstaff AZ USA winter.
The hottest I’ve been in was 117°F (47.2°C) when I lived in Las Vegas. Was actually slated for a 10 mile run that day, but it was mercifully cut down to 4 miles.
Coldest without windchill would be -35°F (-37°C), just a couple of winters ago. I’m surprised it’s not lower, not too far from here a city set the state record at -60°F (-51°C) not too long ago.
I suppose you’ve never seen snow then? Definitely try if you get some chance. I wish it snowed more often where I live.
I have no idea what the coolest temp has been for me, but probably around -10C?
Hottest 48°C (52°C Apparent temperature) Chaco region, Paraguay
Coldest 0°C Paraguay (it doesn’t get extremely cold here)
-40C and +40C. Both in the same place and in the same year. Fuckin save me.
Add “in the same place” and you would have said Siberia without saying it
Oh it was in the same place. I should have made that clear, but incorrectly assumed it was implied.
Hottest: +40C
Coldest: -40C
I think that’s exactly it, which is nice and round. The 40 above was in the US, the 40 below was the coldest it’s ever been at night here. Without windchill, mind you. Windchill is cheating. With windchill it can get close to -100C on those same days.
Coldest: -20º Vilnius Hottest: 47º Sevilla
118F -42F. Both extremes experienced in northern Nevada.
-40, 50 I think (Celsius)
