"Do not go outside unless it's absolutely neccessary, exposed flesh can freeze in 12 seconds!"
I was in middle school and we were forced outside for 50 minutes after lunch
so the teachers could still have their break.
I also had to wait for the bus for 20 minutes.
Bus was late. Not fun.

Real? Farout I'd tell the teachers to bugger off (in more colourful language of course). Stuff their break.

Well that was when I was 12 years old.
No one would treat an adult that way, so I'm okay now.

The coldest daytime high that I ever experienced where I currently live that I can remember of was 32 degrees. But the coldest daytime highs that I have ever experienced in my life period was in the 10s back when I still used to live in the Northeast.
While growing up in the Hudson Valley I have seen the temperature fail to get above 0 F two or three times. The worst, if I remember correctly, was a -7 as measured on our back porch during a cold snap in January 1961.
More recently, in February 2006, I spent an afternoon skiing in Washington's Upper Methow valley where the temperature in Mazama crawled all the way up to -1. In the latter case there was no wind, the day was brilliantly sunny and the humidity so low as to be practically unreadable.
I'm not an avid ski-er but in full sun, even below 0, I was active enough that I had to shed some outerwear to keep from overheating!
The coldest high was 39F on December 22, 1989. We came close this year with a high of 40F on January 10....I doubt we'll see another high that dosen't reach 50 for at least 10 or more years.
And for North GA....I read somewhere than in February 1899 the high on Feb 12 was only 5F. With a low of -13F. Not sure how accurate that is, though.
