10 layers?
I am planning to ride in similar condition tomorrow morning. Hopefully I don't need 10 layers.

Today I started out at 31 degrees. I count my layers:
Top:
- Pantagonia Capelene base layer
- North Face base layer
- Swobo wool jersey + Smart Wool arm warmers
- GBW Phantom Wind Stopper
Bottom:
- Performance bike shorts
- Performance long tights
Hands:
- Pantagonia glove liners
- Zoot full finger gloves
Feet:
- Smartwool PHD socks
- Shoes
- GBW Gore-Tex Booties
So, not including the shoes, I do have 10 layers
Edit: I forgot the balaclava on my head. So I have 11
