Boston (Was Nuuk Greenland)
After the blizzard, they forecast even more biting wind chill:
http://weather.boston.com/ says in NWS forecast for Boston "Monday: Partly cloudy and brisk. Highs in the mid 20s. west Winds 15 to 25 mph. Wind chill readings as low as 15 below in the morning." I assume you can translate that to ... The Other Units (lacking a PC term for those). Elena Succorso wrote: Nice, but how about Boston, Mass...?

2005: snip Wind chill readings as low as 15 below in the morning." snip Hmmm... -15°F is -26°C - if I mention figures like that to my Canadian friend he'll probably start going on about subtropical conditions! I'm told the windchill was -56 (Celsius) in Winnipeg a week or so ago (-40 with a 20km/h wind). It's only -8 (pre-windchill) now, though...
