Lived in northern Alberta for 4 years and know exactly what you are saying. If you got your car started in the AM, you didn't turn it off until days end.

Windchill per se doesn’t affect machinery like living beings, same as humidex on the high end. However, the wind will definitely cool warm machinery off much quicker then on a windless day. Just 2 hours outside in a windy -35 the vehicle is stone cold, even the tires have a flat spot for a couple blocks.

Not really. I’m kinda in the middle, more north then Southern Ontario yet still much below the American border of Manitoba.
Just so happens we are in the center of the polar vortex today.

I guess my memory was wrong, In my mind it was more north, around Moose river and such.

Just outside of Thunder Bay on the west side of Lake Superior … Moose River is quite a bit north of me for sure. And I’ll bet it’s damn cold there right now. Lol
