It is so cold up here that...
... that drivers need to plug their car while parked, to enable a "cover" to heat up the engine and the battery to keep them frost-resistant.
... that boiling water evaporates and freezes when you throw it in the air.
... that roads do not freeze; the air and the snow are too dry.
... that, during the first seconds outside, you hardly breath; the air dries your throat.
... that condensation around your nose and mouth is freezing.
... that animals hibernate to safe calories and some of them, like the arctic ground squirrel, let their body temperature fall down to -3°C (27°F).
... that it becomes easier to go to some places since they are completely icy (rivers, lakes, swamps, etc.).
... that I'm also a bit cold :-)
