can you die from hypothermia at + temperature or 0? How much time will it take?

I live in a very cold climate in the U.S. Like yesterday it was 9 above Fahrenheit with a 11 below wind chill. With that said not every winter, but once in a while I will see on our local tv news someone who got disoriented or something like that and they are found dead from exposure. So yes, but would I NO. I have had frostbite before, and it is hellish. I have cross county skied before in minus 20 Fahrenheit with a 40 plus below wind chill and when I have come in the zippers on my clothes and the buckles on my boots are frozen solid, so Ya, I have been in cold before.

One always hears about how it is like just "falling to sleep". Well, it is a lot more complicated than that.

Just my 2 cents worth.

My best to you, my good friend.

The only cases I know of hypothermia and when people got very drunk in winter and decided to walk home from a bar but didn't make it and passed out.

If you have enough time, you can die from hypothermia at temperatures above freezing. That would avoid frostbite which would probably make it less painful.

Trying to get yourself to stay out in the cold while you are suffering in the cold seems like a very difficuly thing to do based on willpower, which is probably while the cases that make the news are typically people who passed out drunk in the cold- they didn't need to use any willpower to die from hypothermia.

Yeah, so drink a bunch of booze and take some benzos and you're golden.

As long as the temperature is low enough and you are in a location where you will not be discovered in time- the higher the temperature the longer it will take- the minimum time to die from hypothermia is about an hour.
