Sub-Zero Weather Grips Part of the Nations

In Portland, Maine temperatures dropped to breathtaking levels, well below zero, in extreme northern sections of Maine early on Monday. Thermometers registered 34 degrees Fahrenheit below zero at Van Buren, 27 below at Presque Isle and 26 below at Allagash, according to the National Weather Service. Well I'll have you know that here in the midwest, we have been dealing with below zero weather for over a week and highs of 1 degree, 5 degrees and 12 degrees. Lots of snow here too but we're supposed to get way (?) up to 23 this weekend. Wow! It will almost feel warm - NOT!
