Three Body Problem (AKA Remembrance of Earth's Past) is an amazing trilogy BTW.

Crazy to see the differences in preferred temp range lol, 30c has me dying and I wet my hair with cold water every couple of hours whenever it's this hot. My perfect summer temps are 15-20c at most. Anything more is uncomfortable. 0-5c is basically t-shirt weather after the long winter of -20c -40c that lasts from mid October-ish - March. Every year in March, the temps will warm up and everyone thinks Spring is coming, but we always get one last cold snap of -20c -30c for at least a few days.

I've even experienced -50c temps (for only a few days every few years TBH) and that is not fun. Your eyelashes try to freeze shut whenever you blink, your nose freezes up and taking a breath is quite unpleasant on the lungs. Would not recommend. It's a good reminder of your mortality, being stuck outside in that weather would quickly become a death sentence even if you were dressed properly.

I was in the only open liftline at Sunshine one morning where the temperature they put on the board was -54. It was actually a nice day for skiing because they had the gondola closed and the hill to ourselves as we were staying in the lodge.
