Windchill
editWindchill is a pretty big factor. If you're going to include Humidex, might as well also include windchill records. I've myself seen -65*C windchill in Calgary a few years ago on the Weather Channel. I'm sure in the rest of Canada, over history, there are even lower windchill records. --Zybez (talk) 21:11, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
Inconsistency
editThis conflicts with the list of extreme temperatures in Canada, where the lowest temperature is given as May 26, 1991 Mount Logan, Yukon −77.5 °C.
I don't know which is correct, so have not amended either article. 87.113.177.37 (talk) 11:50, 6 July 2011 (UTC)

edit- In Canada, Chinook windstorms tear through Alberta and Saskatchewan, producing a dust storm in downtown Calgary and causing millions of dollars in damage. The windstorms fuel a grass fire that grows to two kilometres wide near Lethbridge, Alberta, before being contained, and gusts reach a maximum speed of 149 km/h (93 mph).
