>>2853268Arizona (one of the warmest western US states), gets colder every single winter in its high country (-30C) than the all time 100+ year record lowest temperatures every recorded in the entire continent of Australia and New Zealand. So in short, no they do not get cold. And -30C is not really that cold by Dakotan, Montanan, and Minnesotan standards, people still go outside and do yard and property work like normal in those temps. AZ also ironically has places that get hotter every single summer (51C) than the all time record hottest temps recorded in Australia. AZ also has places that average more winter snowfall than NZ's all time snowiest places in record breaking years.
