How come we say 'It's colder than hell outside' when isn't it realistically always colder than hell since hell is supposed to be fire and brimstone?

I served as a fireman in my military service, so I do love this shot! Love the perspective that makes me remember those days - you have to have this in your blood, I mean that helping hand, and you have to have a great spirit of a very good observer in order to know how to save somebody without hurting others... sorry for a little off-topic! be good! be happy!
