as someone from Florida (USA) who has only ever seen snow once on a winter trip, literally every few months I learn something horrific about snow that makes it seem a little bit worse
Last months was that the salt that melts snow can essentially melt cars metal over enough time
Then it was that there's invisible 'black ice'
Now paint lines literally don't exist?! How do you exist over there? I'm literally dieing in like 50°F weather (10°C)
We get down to -50C (-58f) here, on a cold snap. Working outdoors sucks in that.
what the fuck?????
Brrr.
A lot of shit breaks when it's that cold
The coldest in my memory was -42C, I remember getting into my boat of a Cadillac and the soft leather seats being as hard as concrete.
