How long would it take for severe hypothermia to set in at -10 degrees fahrenheit if car stalls?

Danger: There are formulas to calculate the rate of heat loss and it depends whether the person is wet or dry, naked or clothed. It is a good idea in bad weather to have a change of clothes and to avoid risk.
