may be related to the hell on wheels thread but truckee california gets mighty cold

well below that which seems to be a heat wave

remember california has mountains which reach to over 14000 feet

not unusual for tioga pass which is about 9900 feet to get completely snowed over in june

Lol thats in a car. I was riding my motorcycle

Then again I don't think it's ever been that cold here. We rarely get below zero and below feezing only a few days a winter.

100? I wish it was that cool.. Here in Brentwood CA we had 107 yesterday..

At those temps it's like riding in a convection oven..

You can always run out to the coast.

Kinda beat you all. I was in Antarctica in February this year. 'Rode' around in an open sled towed by a tractor at ~20mph. It was -26 outside, with wind-chill I don't know what it calculated at.

-26 Celsius or good old Fahrenheit? Makes a big difference; if C, that is a hot spell for that locale. Gets colder than that in the midwest.

Up to 70 degrees F of frost and more are not unknown in the Yukon. Spittle freezes solid before it hits the ground.

70 degrees of frost is -38F or -39C.
