Then comes the windchill... −20.2C or−4.4F is our winter average. Summers rock.
Even in cold climates, not all cars come with them and you didn't explicitly mention it, so I mistakenly assumed you didn't have one. I've lived an area that would consider Winnipeg both South and warm. -60°F is no fun... and a big part of why I moved south :P

An oil pan heater may not be a bad idea either at those temps, especially since you've switched back to dino squeezin's.
