That depends on how cold cold is.

What scale is that measured in?(Most likely it's Celsius)You cannot just take the degrees, double it , and get the answer. That would be like saying a child in 2nd grade is twice as old as a child in 1st grade.
You have to convert to degrees Kelvin. In which 0 K is absolute zero(nothing can be below that. Actually 0 K is impossible too) With Kelvin, you can double it and then convert back to the other scale.
0 C = 273.15 K, double that = 546.30 K =273.15 C
But just in case it's not Celsius(LOL)
0 F =-17.777. C = 255.37222.. K double that = 510.7444... K =237.59444..C = 459.67 F

The reason it doesn't make sense to talk about one day being "twice as cold" as another is that on the fahrenheit temperature scale, the zero point is arbitrary. It is also arbitrary on the centigrade scale. The only temperature scale on which the zero is not arbitrary is the Kelvin scale. On the Kelvin scale, absolute zero represents the temperature at which all motion, even atomic motion, ceases. It is impossible to get any colder than that, so if it were zero degrees Kelvin today, it couldn't be twice as cold tomorrow. (And we'd all be dead.)

Zero Degrees Celcius equals 273 Kelvin. So it will be 136.5 Degrees Kelvin tomorrow. Sorry, don't know what that is in Degrees Fahrenheit.

I agree fully with the necessity for conversion to Kelvin.
Now, if we shift our paradigm a bit and take "twice as cold" to be "half as warm", then tomorrow will be 273/2, or 136.5 degrees K. or -136.5 degrees Celcius.

Convert the zero Farenheit temperature to Celsius and go from there.

iIt is 0 degrees today and tommorow it will be double. Therefore the temperature will be (-273 degres)

how cold was it yesterday?
it's probably minus 100 degrees, or just minus 50
