I only know 0c=32 F, 10c=50f, and 20c= room temperature in my head. The rest, I have to work out; can guesstimate that 60C would BE TORTURE though even though I don't have the exact translation.

Difficult question. As far as sensation goes, colder is usually more exciting and better. Practical matters like getting the car to start and freezing pipes are an increasing concern at frigid temperatures though. -17°C to -20°C seems to be a good middle ground so I voted for that.

-10°c = 14°f. -20°c = -4°f. -30°c = -22°f. -40°c = -40°f. -50°c = -58°f. -60°c = -76°f. -70°c = -94°f. 30°c = 86°f. 40°c = 104°f. 50°c = 122°f. 60°c = 140°f.

Picked 3C-8C. I like it cold enough to snow at times but also reasonably comfortable over the course of the winter. Ideally winter days would have average min/max days of 0C/6C with periods of much cooler or warmer weather.

Highs between 18C and 23C are perfect winter conditions.

-5 / 2 in the coldest month is perfect for me.

I want march to be around 4-12c though. No six months winter for me.
