-9 cold? I'm used to -35 C (-31 F) without the wind chill being cold . . . which is about what its been here recently, or about -30. Most winters we get several days of -40 C (-40 F) or colder without the windchill around here, with the wind chill sometimes -55 C. Thats too freaken cold for me. Anything below -30 is too cold for me . . . but what can you do, haha.
