International Falls, Minnesota, has broken a nearly century-old record for their coldest December 27, at -36 degrees Fahrenheit.
That temperature — not including the wind chill factor — is the lowest since 1924’s -32F on the same date. However, it remains a far cry from the state’s coldest on record: On Groundhog Day (February 2) in 1996, Tower, Minnesota, recorded a bone-chilling -60F morning. Even International Falls has seen colder on other days, with a -55F personal “best” in 1909.
This winter has been brutal across the board. According to Weather.com, a southward dip in the jet stream is largely responsible for pushing arctic temperatures into both midwestern and northeastern portions of the United States. Already, dozens of locations have reported record freezing temperatures.
If you plan to ring in 2018 with Ryan Seacrest and Mariah Carey — yes, again — in Times Square, be prepared to face one of the coldest New Year’s Eves that the city has ever seen. New York City Emergency Management officials are encouraging citizens to remain indoors via an extreme cold weather alert. A code blue has also been instated for the city’s homeless population.
This winter, it seems that Jack Frost is going a bit further than merely nipping at your nose.

No big deal, it’s just cold. It takes longer for car to heat up.
Well, -18 in Minneapolis is no big deal. Maybe a freeper from Frostbite Falls can offer their opinions.

Global warming’s fault.
This is obviously a lie!
According to algore and the cult of climate change, the new cash crop of Minnesota should be coconuts and oranges.
Did Al Bore, I mean Al Gore, approve this story?
Wonder how Muslims do in weather like this...Did they ever see snow before settling in Minnesota??
Yes, it will be 15 below zero here in Minneapolis for the next three days.
Some call it global warming. Some call it global cooling.
We call it........WINTER.
In Feb. 1982, snowmobiling in Yellowstone Park, the weather report in the TV at The Stagecoach Motel in West Yellowstone, Montana quoted the temp at -37°F at 6:00 A.M. Colder than a banker’s heart!
I hope Mariah has a couple of bandaids on otherwise she might put out someone’s eye...
How close is this to Frostbite Falls?
Too low temperatures.
Heretic values need AlGorithms-adjustments.
Yes, but what is it in Frostbite Falls, MN.

Beat me by less than a minute.
AH, for the days when while sitting in your house it snaps and pops from the cold.
