When I was a kid, I bundled up and went out in a -80F wind chill blizzard, just to say I did it. I almost got lost on the street in front of my own house. As an adult, I love going out in snowstorms in the car to pull people out of ditches. Doesn’t matter what car I happen to have at the time. A few years ago, I went out on my motorcycle when it was 18F, again, just to say I did it.
Yeah ngl it’s pretty fun to tool about helping people get unstuck. We haven’t had a really good blizzard in years though. :( Snow-bashing on a 4x4 trail, the two times I did it, was a fun way to spend several hours going a few hundred feet.

Where the fuck did you live, Antarctica?
Chicagoland, far west suburbs, winter of 1979. We were catching the wind coming off the Great Plains.
Damn, that’s wild. The coldest I’ve ever seen it in the North East was like 0 with a -10 wind-chill.
