MANY impressive records dating back some 40 or more years ago have been tied or smashed this week from Montana back at the beginning of the week to the Great Lakes as we end the week and it’s now the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic’s turn to shiver!

Recent years has seen heat records fall by as much as 10 to 12 degrees but International Falls smashed a near 40 year record by an incredible 13 degrees.
