Long Answer:
Since temperature is more properly measured in the Kelvin scale with 0 being absolute zero, and zero degrees C is 273 degrees Kelvin
Instead of twice as cold, you can say half as warm so 273K/2 = 136.5 kelvin, or -136.5 degrees C
Short Answer. Bloomin' Cold ;-)

Zero degrees Celsius (not celcius!) is 273 degrees on the absolute or 'Kelvin' scale. Thus if it is to be 'twice as cold' the absolute temperature must fall to 136.5 degrees K (or -136.5 degrees Celsius).

I think your best bet is to convert to Kelvin. 0 degrees Celsius is 273 degrees Kelvin. So if it is twice as cold, consider that to be half as warm = 136.5 degrees Kelvin = -136.5 degrees C. You can only say things are twice as/half as/ etc. if you first use Kelvin, because Kelvin is the only temperature scale with a real absolute zero.

0 degrees C = 273 K (Kelvin -- the absolute temperature scale)
1/2 of 273 is 136.5 K, which is -136.5 degrees C, which is pretty cold!!!

Let tomorrow come and we shall know for sure. Meteorology after all is not yet an exact science. It might even turn out to be hotter than predicted. Stop worrying about the weather, we have no control over it.

Its more better measured as a series.
What was temperature yesterday and the day before?
If they day before yesterday it was 8, yesterday 4, today 0, then expect -4 tomorrow.

well 0 degrees celcius is 32f id say the answer is 0 degrees f

there is no such thing as cold, it does not actually exist - it is a description of the absence of heat, so the question is impossible!
The nearest meaningful question would be '..it will be half as hot tomorrow'!
