I'm pretty sure that arguing from anecdote isn't going to be
particularly productive.  I live in interior Alaska and the
morning temperatures this week have been in the neighborhood
of -30F, not rising during the day above -10F.  We have weeks
during each winter in which temperatures don't rise above -40.

The issue in the Hilton seems to be that there's a lot of
variability from spot to spot, not that the temperatures are
outside "normal" ranges.  This is easily dealt with by layering,
as Mary suggested.
