In specific

Kalixx:
Nigeria has no cold state. 15C na moin moin.


Even UK is not cold, even in its winter. -5C na moin moin.


America not so cold but they think so.


Only quote if you've experienced -20C before. That is when you're now talking. Cold that makes blood run from ur nose. Cold that gives you frostbites even when wearing gloves. Cold that layers snow on ice on walkways.

Thats Canada.

Russia?

Jos is the mother of all

Gembu, in Taraba state is the mother of all.

The only cold State in Nigeria is plateau State. Others are just cool at Night during raining season.
Op go and sleep without AC / Fan In those other states during dry season. Oo ni duro woo tan! Even fan self will be blowing you hot breeze.
States that are only cold during harmattan, are those ones cold states? All time cold State is plateau!

know:
Gembu, Taraba state.

I heard Gembu is not only very cold, but difficult to access.

Op, do adjust asap and add kebbi state, its more cool here than sokoto

heskeyw:
Jos is not even cold when compared to other towns in plateau. The cold in jos na only BSc him get. If u visit pankshin or mangu, na there u go see where cold dey offer PhD education to the residents.

pankshin is highest!! Mangu is cold but i think jos is colder!!! Kanke,langtang and d rest re very hot

Cross River is the first state ive been to that i could literally see my breath while exhaling

czarina:
True, I heard Pankshin and Mangu are both freezing cold.

Jos is the popular place on the plateau, not surprised they frequently overlook the other areas like the two above.

No be lie I was there last year both mangu and pankshin are dam cold

dgitrader:


AccuWeather App is never wrong. It matches exactly with reports of media channels like CNN and BBC. Its impossible to get below 10 in Jtown in recent years. So tell me how u got 5 degrees?

Oga it is very possible there was a point i think around 2004 or so it was as low as 5 when people were wearing upto 5 jackets. In fact some pple were not taking their baths in d morning or night

grandstar:


I was wondering why Taraba wasn't listed there. The weather today is cooler than that of London. Just checked accuweather.com. Simply type in Gembu in the search bar and next check London

am sure the op hasn't been to Gembu before. But Pakshin na die oooooo. the cold there na elele

pankshin is the coldest town in plateau

heskeyw:

I served in plateau and we camped in mangu lga. The cold I witnessed there eh was 5times more than the one I witnessed in bassa and in jos. Later, an NYSC official told us that the cold in mangu is nothing when compared to the one in pankshin. He talk say pankshin na the baba for cold.

bro no be lie I was there before

I did my Nysc in Plateau State. This is how corpers dress in NYSC Camp, Mangu. And this was in June if I can remember.

christejames:
And you didn't add Adamawa and Taraba states where the highest peak is located, also include Nsukka cause it's special place in Enugu state when it comes to temperature

He mentioned ENUGU STATE.

czarina:
You see, I told you so ( )


Even now, if you're on the plateau you'll agree it's still cold. Can't remember the last time I walked barefoot inside or stayed indoors without a headwarmer.

Sometimes I even doubt if Accu Weather gets the correct temperature

How cold a particular temperature feels depends on several factors not just the number on the thermometer. Humidity, breeze/wind, altitude and others play a role. 20 degrees at Oluyole in Ibadan might feel much warmer than 20 degree Celcius in Central Jtown.

if u Neva been to gembu, Taraba state, u dy learn....I worked my reposting after two weeks wen cold wan kill me during service

Never is a strong word

6 final year kwasu students ,5 graduates died in a crash today,why is this news not on yet.

Toluwarnih:
everytyn na lie for some people, they wont think twice b4 quotin post, dnt u knw dat those hot states ar usually chilly by night since d hot wind by day ar replaced by cool breeze at night. so nxt tym, think twice b4 quotin post

Don't mind them.
They're the type who sneaked outta Geography class in high school.

And so Lokoja is not in the list.. That town has everything in excess.

I've experienced Katsina's firsthand and it was not funny. Abuja is cold every night. During my service year I was shivering on some nights. I look forward to a Jos visit but their constant crisis is not giving me hope.
