Brrrrr!

Never been in that kind of cold...

Grew up on the great Plains , we could get wind chill factors like that though.

Actually the temperature in Tok yesterday morning was -68 and this morning it's -70. Tok does not have an official weather station and the closest one is the village of Northway so Tokites rely on each other's thermometers to get a good idea of the average temp in Tok on any given day. As the story goes, Tok began as a government experiment to prove once and for all that hell DOES freeze over. LOL
