NOTE: As cold as it has been on Saturday, no record lows were set that I could determine. An early February 1996 cold wave was believe it or not even colder than this.

hey mark...
Winnipeg lies in the middle of the North American continent on low-lying, flat land. It has an extreme continental climate, in that there are great differences between summer and winter temperatures. As there are no nearby mountain ranges or bodies of water to ameliorate the winter climatic conditions, Winnipeg lies exposed to numerous weather systems including bitterly cold Arctic high pressure systems. This can result in bone-chilling temperatures as early as the end of October, followed by bitter cold temperatures and sometimes dangerous wind chill readings during December, January and February. On average, the maximum daily temperature exceeds 0°C (32°F) on only 10 days out of 90 for these three months and the minimum daily temperature falls below -20°C (-4°F) on 49 out of the 90 days. Cold weather and snow will occasionally extend into April, although in general the winter weather begins to moderate in late February or early March. The extremity of its climate in the winter months has caused the (somewhat derisive) nickname of "Winterpeg". The coldest temperature ever recorded at Winnipeg was -47.8°C (-54.0°F), on December 24, 1879. The coldest temperature during the last 25 years was -41.4°C (-42.5°F) on February 2, 1996. The coldest wind chill reading ever recorded was -57.1 °C (-70.8 °F) on February 1, 1996. According to Environment Canada, Winnipeg is the coldest city in the world with a population of over 600,000.[1]
Summers are typically warm and often humid, particularly in June and July, with frequent (and sometimes severe) thundershowers. Occasionally, humidex readings exceed 40 °C (104 °F). The average maximum temperature for June, July, and August is 24.7 °C (76.5 °F). On average, the maximum daily temperature exceeds 30°C (86°F) on 11 days out of 92 for these three months and the minimum daily temperature falls to or below 2°C (36°F) on only one out of the 92 days. Depending on the year, warm weather can continue beyond Thanksgiving in October, or come to an abrupt end soon after Labour Day. The city often receives an Indian Summer, when summer weather returns briefly after the first frosts, in mid to late October, or even early November. The highest temperature ever recorded in Winnipeg (since commencement of record-keeping in 1873) was 42.2°C (108.0°F) on July 11, 1936. The hottest temperature recorded in the past 25 years was 38.8°C (101.8°F) on September 2, 1983. The highest humidex reading was 46.1°C (115.0°F) on June 27, 1996.

Spring and fall tend to be rather contracted seasons, each averaging little over six weeks. In general the weather during these seasons is highly variable, and rapidly changing. For example, temperatures in Winnipeg in May have ranged from -11.7 °C (10.9 °F) to 37.8 °C (100.0 °F), and in October from -20.6 °C (-5.1 °F) to 30.5 °C (86.9 °F).
