    Sometimes if it feels a bit cold I read the weather reports for Ulan Bator...makes me feel warmer almost instantly

        I expect you wouldn't need any saunas because the place would be one big sauna

          -33C with wind? That's not fun. I'm glad I've had 0 days of the kind. It's been rather mild actually. Not even over -20C yet.

            you in Calgary now?

            I am here as usual and it is is freeze your ass cold-- Its the type of day where you make sure to raise your window blinds at home if you don't want the interior of your windows icing up

            The homeless shelters are accepting EVERYONE even if people have to sleep on floors-- they open additional locations-- gyms etc etc if they need to so that no one should freeze

                    Doesn't that defeat the purpose?

                      The purpose of what?

                      Homeless shelters usually have capacities (fire code, beds, etc).

                      When there's an extreme cold alert these capacities are waived.

                      Why the thumbs down, do you think this is ruining the homeless experience by providing shelter in -48C weather?

                        Indeed, the ultimate purpose of the shelter is to get them in from the cold. If they don't get a bed, well, tough titties.

                        edit: wow, titties isn't a censored word?

                          That's pronounced: "Ulan b etor"
