Extreme cold snaps in November are rare, but certainly not unheard of. I've made note previously that the extreme cold that used to hit in January stopped in 1979. As a matter of fact, the coldest extreme event to hit BC in my lifetime occurred in November when the temperature dropped to -46.5C (-52F) in the south and -47.2C/-53F in the north. This happened in 1985.
