Natoin's "Icebox" hits record 40 below 0


MINNEAPOLIS, Minnesota (AP) -- The temperature in International Falls, Minnesota, fell to a record 40 below zero Monday, just a few days after the northern Minnesota town won a federal trademark making it officially the "Icebox of the Nation."


"This is about as cold as it gets, this is bad. There's no wind -- it's just cold," said McDougall, 48, a worker at The Fisherman, a convenience store and gas station in the town on the Canadian border. "People just don't go out, unless you have to go to work."


I can already imagine all the people suffering of coldness. I wouldn't want to live in that kind of area that is really cold and I think I would've even survived. Many people could get sick and even not breath the cold air.
