Really windy and rainy just above freezing is the coldest it gets.
It is really miserable, I can promise you I know, but -25 with a 30 mph wind feels like it's scalding you, especially when you don't have all the best gear for it.

I had to use this exact analogy when explaining to my cheap arse dad why I rented a cart to play a round of golf when I arrived to 115 F temps at Fort Sill, OK in July!

A couple of years ago, we escaped family and went to Montana for Christmas. It was -10 on the day we flew back to Houston, which was experiencing a hot Christmas week...and was 90 when we landed.
Felt really weird to experience a 100 degree difference across 10-12 hours.

Hottest: probably Camp Udairi, Kuwait. It might have changed over to Buehring by that time. It got to 123 one day.
Coldest: It was -11 one morning while I was in Wisconsin for training.

Hottest - Abu Dhabi summer. People don't think of humidity when they consider the desert but the humidity is crazy high there with temps over 100. I saw a heat index one day around 140.
Coldest - Had many cold nights in Colorado but a blizzard in northern Nevada tops my list. I have a pic somewhere of the car dash reading -17.

Hottest: 115 in Las Vegas during the summer last years. Walking through that concrete jungle was unbearable. felt like being in an oven
Coldest: woke up to -20 or so in Montana one morning week on ski trip. With all the ski jackets and thermals on was nowhere near as unbearable as that heat in LV. Still skied the full day just fine

Hottest: summer job at a welding shop.
Coldest: blast freezer in a cold storage. Walk in and your nose hairs freeze instantly.
FWIW - those jobs were good times. One of my co-workers pulled the Brazil nut trick on all the honkies. I still randomly laugh about it 35 years later.

Bozeman, Montana -16. Really, after it hit about 20 degrees, it didn't matter, just numb.
Cairo, Egypt. It was 113, and while I've been in hotter (119 in Palm Desert), Cairo is 1050 years old and they still haven't planted one f'ing tree in that city that you could find shade underneath. If you were outside of the hotel, there was no place to hide from the sun.

Hottest is where I live now - Ft Myers FL. It’s brutal. The suns rays are so strong that it’s as close to living in a tropical jungle as you can get in the continental US. Most people don’t realize that if you travel directly across the Gulf from Ft Myers/Naples you’d be in Mexico it’s that far south.
The coldest air I’ve felt is -40 wind chill. Used to live in that upper Midwest. I didn’t mind it. I like the snow

Coldest: temp wise: North Dakota in January. feels wise: Houston and Nola feel like 20 degrees colder than what the temp displays due to the humidity.
Not sure about that. A now deceased friend who grew up in northern Wyoming and Montana told me that the coldest winter he ever spent was in SW Louisiana piney woods near Starks in 40 degrees with misty rain and a breeze. It was too the bone down here due humidity.
I've never been anywhere colder than Louisiana or Houston in winter.
Dad served in the USN in the Bering Straits at the end of WWII. He vowed that he would never complain about the heat in Louisiana ever again. He said that he every bit of clothing in his sea bag on in the engine room and couldn't keep warm
