Average low in Jan/Feb: -13 deg. C (~ 8 F)

Record low: -47 deg C (~ -52 F)

An ex-colleague (in a company I worked in earlier), who was based in Minneapolis or somewhere in Minnesota, came for a visit, and told us that he got frost-bite as a kid, and parts of his face were still sensitive due to that, many years later.
