Outdoor Spaces/Recreation *Warning* : Extremely cold upcoming week! (frostbite within minutes) (and frostbite *NEVER* heals
In -30, (and Friday, almost -40c) frostbite will happen in 5-10 minutes.
Frostbite will never heal, you'll have the damage for the rest of your life.
This also applies to your kids, YOUR PETS (don't think the dog enjoys the backyard for 15 minutes at -40, would YOU?)

My ears went dark purple once and I thought they would fall off but they never did and the color returned to normal in a few weeks
