Likrely with windchill. According to this page
http://www.geobop.com/world/NA/Topics/Weather/Temp/index.htm
-80 is Alaska's [and North America's] record. [I've been outside in
-25 and didn't really feel the difference between that and -10. . .
but at -80 it isn't what you *feel* that kills flesh.]

Holy crap! I looked at Alabama to see how hot it got. [I'm in NY &
have only felt 100 degrees once-- 90 is rare.] The record low for
Alabama is -27! Must be a mountain range somewhere in your state,
eh?
