Blowing snow and frigid temperatures pound nation!

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Arctic air extended its grip
Wednesday with below-zero temperatures stretching from Montana to northern New England and frost nipping the Gulf Coast.
A few ski areas in Vermont and northern Minnesota closed for the day because of the cold—38 below zero at International Falls,
with the wind chill during the night estimated at 50 below.
The temperature at Bolton, Vt., was 10 below zero and operators of the Bolton Valley ski resort feared that skiers could freeze,
if a lift malfunctioned, said spokesman Josh Arneson.
"Getting people off a lift can take time," he said.
