An arctic blast from Canada has brought freakishly cold temps to the upper Midwest and Northeast. Over the weekend, the “Icebox of the Nation,” International Falls, Minnesota, got down to 46 degrees below zero, tying the lowest temperature since they started keeping records back in 1897. But they had nothing on Caribou, Maine, which reached 50 below. An online poll asked if they planned to stay in out of the cold today, and 61% said no.
- One resident said, “50 below is cold… but it’s a dry cold.”
- Blame Canada!
- They should have wrapped themselves in the bear skin left over from the roast in Minnesota!
