Weather Records Set Two Days in a Row

Weather records continue to tumble.

For the second day in a row, Kenora has set a record for cold temperatures.

This morning, the thermometer has dropped to -34, smashing the previous
record set back in 1962, of -31.7.

Bill Laidlaw from Signal Weather Services says a number of records were
also broken across the region yesterday.

In Kenora, the temperature dropped to -31 just before midnight, breaking the
previous record of -29.4, set in 1964.

Laidlaw says the intense cold will continue right through the weekend and into next week as well.
