Only 20km in the territory, the answer would be from -25C/-35 with no wind.
It's the wind and chill-factor it create, who makes it cold after that on the coast.
The lowest I experienced without wind was -25C on coast.
Once, we had no thermometer and was working on the LNG plant who's on an island: Winter 2006 if I remember well, we had very often -35c during those days(well nights: It's night during 3 months up there).
A storm was preparing and it was my very last day there: I was counting the hours with my work-mate, as we was cuting a pipe exposed in the wind.
The electric grinder stoped to work,the temperature was too low: It had no torque at all...
When the storm came up to maximum the day after, they registered -48C and 260km/h wind: 3000 men(the new rotation) was evacuated from the plant and sent ASAP home with 2 weeks payment for 1 day's work.
I was home since 1 day and glad for that anyway:D...
