    Hell freezes over almost every year; a nice smallish town in Norway - even colder than Stuttgart. Stuttgart's temperature range probably closer to America, a small town in Holland.

        My deepest sympathies. I lived in Stuttgart for 12 years. If one day hell freezes over, I imagine it to be like Stuttgart in the winter without a car.

        I lived 5 years in Berlin, and 15 in Kaiserslautern, and have never been this cold. The weather apps all say it's 35 degrees or so, but my fingers beg to differ. It can't be more than 10. (1.6 and -12 for you Celsius people)

                  Probably the damp. I always found the UK hovering around freezing colder than I did Hungary at ten below. They are both cold compared to winter time Africa (North).

                    Hi I'm back after moving from Texas to Germany. It's freaking cold in Stuttgart. Everybody except me had fireworks on New Year's Eve, so I just watched. And jumped out of the way a lot. I still haven't found a house, so am in a temp apartment. It's freaking cold in Stuttgart. It takes me 2 trains and a bus to get to work...until my car arrives. Did I mention the lack of warm weather here?

                      I'm Canadian, not American, but I do live in the Deep South. People here love their fireworks; we love them in Canada, too. It isn't the volume of fireworks, it is the safe use of them. I've seen fireworks displays tip over and start shooting horizontally - not fun. I was at a commercially executed event; a spark hit the fireworks storage area and they all went off. One of the workers had one leave a nice hole through his lower legs, but it cauterized itself on the way out... We decided to leave when the big supply went off before the emergency services could arrive and egress would be... difficult.

                          Actually, once it freezes, it isn't that cold any more. People by the Trondheim fjord really want the fjord to freeze over: That reduces the humidity significantly! Five celsius below freezing at 60% relative humidity feels a lot colder than twenty below at 15% RH. Actually, it must be extremely cold for a long period of time for the fjord at Hell (the village by the Trondheim Airport) to freeze over; it doesn't happen every year. At the very bottom of the fjord, such as by Steinkjer, the fresh water from the rivers reduce the salinity of the fjord, making it freeze earlier. Also, the currents are much stronger at Hell, keeping it from freezing. Sure, this is nitpicking; I'll admit to that. It does happen that Hell freezes over. If you are lucky, you might run into fellow travellers at Hell that might surprise you: Hell Station - Wikipedia[^]. Unfortunately, the station is no longer in use. A few years ago, you could buy train tickets at a special discount, from Hell to Paradise (outside Bergen), but even the Paradise train station is closed down (I believe). So once you are at Hell, there is no way to go to Paradise - at least not by train, end-to-end.

                            How cold is cold? Colder than Fargo, North Dakota? Colder than Fairbanks, Alaska? Is it windy, in addition to being cold? Like in Chicago, where they actually have ropes along the sidewalks for people to hold on to, so that they won't be swept away on te icy sidewalks? Snowy like Buffalo, NY? Texans are a bunch of spoiled brats! :laugh:
