paraguay/argentina border. and you have to understand the river rose 6 meters already. it is expected to continue to rise over the next three to four days. you can see debris, cars, even homes flowingi indown this rive. and topography plays a big role sitting in a lower basin. the good news is we do expect that this should die down five, six days from now. a little closer to home, the big story is the bitter cold temperatures expected across areas of the upper midwest. including that of minnesota, the reason this is important is because this is where the super bowl is going to be played. now, here is the thing. i understand it is a closed dome. we re not so much worried about the fans in the game, but the fans outside. because not only are the temperatures going to be cold, the windchill will be a big factor. with windchill, you have this outer layer of heat that sits just on the outside of your body, but when the wind blows,
it takes away that outer layer of heat that surrounds your body. hypothermia can set in with a body temperature drop of only 2 to 4 degrees. when we are talking about these temperatures, you have to keep in mind the folks that are going to brave it say around noon outside, the temperature will be minus 1, but the windchill will be aut minus 18. even for on the actual start of the game, say around 6:00, 6:30, for the folks huddling into the actual stadium, the temperature will only be about 3 degrees. here is the thing, a lot of folks keep saying it is the c coldest game on record. some think it is unfair to count a dome game as the coldest, but the coldest out door game was in new orleans back in 1972 with 39 degrees. you re talking about a high of 3 at the game. so no comparison for the folks just walking into the game. it will be incredibly cold. are you ready to go cover it?
