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.
-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.
Coldest would be -60C, warmest about 40C. Funnily enough, these were in the same place (Canada).
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
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.
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.
118F -42F. Both extremes experienced in northern Nevada.
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
I slept in a tent in 2°F(-16.6°C) weather, I’ve probably been in slightly colder but not while sleeping.
Hottest was 117°F(47.2°C, last year in my home town it was +110°F for over two weeks straight.
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)
do birds fly? do ducks duck?
Hottest was 122°F (50°C), a record heat day in Mesa, AZ.
Coldest was in Indiana during the polar vortex of 2019, -45°F (-42°C).
The world is a crazy fucking place.
47.5° (117.5 F) in Phoenix AZ USA summer.
-11.6° (11 F) in Flagstaff AZ USA winter.
