Estamos a 10 [grados] bajo cero. (It's 10 below zero.)
notice:
In the present tense, it is usual to use the phrase estamos a (literally, "we are") to discuss the temperature being experienced by the speaker and the persons around him or her. Está a (literally, "it is") is used to discuss the temperature of other places.
Posibilidades: (1) Hoy estamos a diez grados bajo cero. (2) Hoy tenemos diez grados bajo cero. (3) Hoy hace diez grados bajo cero. La 3 es la más neutra.
Menos 10 grados ó 10 grados bajo cero.
Está a 10 grados bajo cero afuera el día de hoy.
