DULUTH, Min. What a difference a week makes when it comes to weather in the Northland! People seem to be out and about a bit more lately, with some spring in their steps.
We started off the month of February as the coldest on record as we were stuck in a deep freeze for 13 days in a row, but it felt like forever.
With many people itching to get outside, we hit high temperatures in the upper 30s to low 40s on Tuesday! It had many jumping for joy! It’s crazy and it s awesome! I just love this weather and don t want any more deep freezes! I’m done with that! laughed Eric Johnson who was visiting Canal Park in the heat wave.
