Be glad you are where you are:


"Severe frosts are expected to hit Moscow this week. Night temperatures are to drop 26 degrees below zero today, a spokesperson for the Moscow Meteorological Bureau said.
The temperature started falling at 3:00 p.m. Monday Moscow time: from one or two degrees below zero to 7-10 degrees below zero. The second wave of cold air is expected to reach Moscow tonight. The front will bring the cold of 16-18 degrees below zero Celsius. The cold will become even stronger on Tuesday night: 26 degrees below zero.
Muscovites will have to experience the true Siberian cold during the religious holiday of Epiphany celebrated on January 19. Meteorologists say that night temperatures will reach 34 degrees below zero, which will be two degrees lower than the absolute record that has ever been registered in Moscow before. Daytime will not be a relief for Muscovites, though: -25 degrees Celsius. It will become a little bit "warmer" during the weekend: -26 at night and -18 degrees in the afternoon."


They probably don't bother counting wind chill either.
