Record-low temperatures were recorded across the Canadian provinces of Alberta and British Columbia this week, with extreme cold weather warnings being issued in other regions.

Temperatures dropped far below freezing, with added wind chills ensuring as many as seven daily minimum temperature records were broken on Tuesday alone.
