It's currently 4 ºF (-16 ºC) here, or -7 ºF (-22 ºC) with the wind chill factor. This has triggered a metal pole warning, so those in the area are advised to avoid touching their tongues to any metal poles, even if somebody triple-dog-dares you.

Wind Chill Factor

So was i the only one who entered that in Wikipedia and who was occupied for an hour because thats actually all kinds of interesting? I never knew what the wind chill factor really was - but apparently its just a way of saying "you get colder, faster". And more apparently, if its stormy and cold, you do not want to go outside naked. Then again, common sense that is.
