Thai Jet Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Parts of North Dakota have got to be ranked near the top of the list. Went to Fargo a few years ago. EVERY, and I mean EVERY, car we saw with North Dakota plates had an electrical cord dangling from the front grill . These are to plug in the engine block heaters. Talk about cold.

Thor99 Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 My last winter stationed at Fort Drum in upstate NY, we regularly hit -60. For two weeks it was the coldest spot in North America. We weren't allowed to leave the barracks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panzer Division Marduk Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Cause nobody lives there, also North Carolina has north in it's name and it's not that cold. Only because of the amount of methane in SJ's farts causes a localised greenhouse effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Central Adirondacks are even worse, and they are in the geographical center of nowhere. Northern Minnesota and North Dakota get my vote on this one though. It's cold there in the summer.

Sperm Edwards Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Here's an interesting article on the coldest city. Damn! Does this answer your question?

nyjetsjetsjets Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 The northern panhandle of Michigan gets extremely cold. I am too young to remember but my parents always tell me of times when they had to put heat tape on the tires of the car so they wouldn't freeze to the ground. They also say that it was alot colder (regularly in the negatives) than Plattsburgh, NY or anywhere in the adirandacks, and I remember it being very cold there.

Yeah, we were located just outside of Marquette, MI which is the 4th coldest on that list. My parents also told me the story that in 1979, 2 months before I was born, it snowed at the end of june!

strange_andy Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 I grew up in the U.P. of Michigan (Marquette), as noted below it's cold! Coldest Weather All Year The coldest climate year-round in the United States is at Barrow on Alaska's north coast. There the normal daily mean temperature is well below freezing, at 10.4 °F (-12 °C). Out of 250 major weather stations in the continental US, these five have an annual mean temperature below 40 °F (4.4 °C): Location Daily Mean °F Mt.
