The lowest temperature ever recorded was 450 ± 80 pK (picoKelvins), achieved by a group of researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 2003. That is 450 ± 80 trillionths of a Kelvin. 0 Kelvin is the theoretical coldest possible temperature and is equal to -273.15° C (-459.67° F).
The Dead Sea Depression in the Middle East is the lowest point in the northern hemisphere, being 413 metres below sea level. Death Valley, at 86 metres below sea level, is shallow by comparison and is the 7th lowest point in the northern hemisphere (8th lowest in the world).

It is - but the northern hemisphere is also tilted awayfrom the sun at that point, giving us wintertime.
