Idioms for how cold it is?

[Overseasmom100]

Doing a list and Ive come up with these

It's brass monkeys
Arctic weather
Frozen to the bone
Like the death of winter
Like Jack Frost has been

It'd founder you
It's fucking Baltic

I've used the phrase 'taters' for years but didn't have a clue where it came from!

Also colder than a witches tit...

Colder than a penguins chuff 😂🐧❄️

Time to fetch my ‘ big ‘ coat out!
Effin’ Baltic
Chapel hat peg weather out there
It’s Brass Monkeys
it’s willy withering outside and
Snell ( bone chilling biting coldness ) [Scottish]

Colder than a penguin's chuff

I remember this from a Christmas special of Only Fools and Horses

Del Boy..................oh come on Racquel its really cold out here, I just bumped into a brass monkey crying his eyes out.

'Taters
Baltic

I wonder what people who live in the Baltic say?

No idea where it's from but we say "It's bimf" for freezing cold. A yorkshire thing maybe?

"Colder than a Polar Bears pocket" is one of my faves

Brass monkeys
-fucking- baltic
Perishing (still used by all in our part of Yorkshire).
I don't understand the walking stick one?

Its Brassic out there! Also feckin' freezing is what my dad says :D

Siberia out there. .....

Tighnabruaich, my mum used to say "cold as a stepmother's breath" - I used it at work the other day (very cold stair well!) and got some strange looks....

(no offence intended to any stepmothers amongst us!)

I use nipply - like nippy but cold enough to make your nipple, well...
"Gosh it's nipply out there!" is something I say a lot and notice double takes. I forget it might be considered odd as am so used to saying it

It’s a bit fresh out there
That wind would cut right through you
It’s Baltic (haven’t ever heard arctic before!)

Its a bit brisk!

Baw chanking

I agree of variations on the brass monkey theme
As a full sentence it would be southerners don't go out unless it's absolutely necessary take a shovel first aid kit and a thermos flask of coffee with you , northerners it's time to get your big coat out .
Frequently shortened to Northerners will need their big coat.

Even my Goosebumps have got goosebumps.
