Reply to comment by ruppy99 in Real feel -21f in Churchill. Y'all it hasn't been like this in years. Be careful. by reverendsteveii

It's not -21 and to say so is absurd

It's like you're all 80 years old

I mean I don't think anybody said it was?

OP said real feel was -21, which is an accuweather measurement used to determine how the temperature will feel and affect an individual, taking in to account other factors as well as temperature (https://www.accuweather.com/en/weather-news/what-is-the-accuweather-realfeel-temperature/156655).

Another example of where real feel can be used is how on a very humid day in summer it can feel a lot hotter than it actually is.

Its easy enough to prove. Go film yourself standing outside for 15 minutes in a tshirt. If the windchill isn't actually -20 then you'll be fine. If it is you'll get frostbite. You seem adamant about this point and it seems really important to you so might as well show us what's what.

What does that prove?

I'm not saying it's not cold. I'm saying you guys are being ridiculous

It proves you're not a pussy for one. I thought you were a true, born and raised Pittsburgher after all.
