<p>I'm thinking of applying to McGill in the future but I'm not sure if I can stand up to the cold! I've lived in the Los Angeles area all my life; some people here start pack on sweaters at room temperature... How cold is Montr</p>
<p>Its COLD. But I really didn't notice too big of a difference between Montreal and my home (Boston), except there was this one week where it reached -40 degrees... not kidding (that's where Celcius and Fahrenheit meet up) CRAZY! But seriously we actually got less snow this year then New England did! It's really not that bad, you get used to it, and there are tunnels :)</p>
<p>yeah, i agree. There was a killer week and a half in January that was nasty. Other than that it's cold but not unbearably so. Bring good boots and a down jacket. Hats and gloves are also excellent things.</p>
