More cold on the way - this time it's North Dakota
Unseasonable weather seems to be the norm this year, what with an over long and cold spring, a summer that didn't kick in until July and now the huge snowfall and icy rains with the landslides.
Bismarck, North Dakota is now at minus 30F. From

Blizzard Slams Northern Plains
A fast-moving blizzard brought snow and high winds to North Dakota on Monday, closing schools and causing more headaches for residents still trying to dig out from a record snowfall last month. And, forecasters said a blast of cold air was on the way that could send the thermometer as low as 30 below zero.
Travel was discouraged in the central and western parts of North Dakota because drifting snow, whipped up by high winds, made the visibility almost zero. While the travel advisory was lifted by midday, new advisories were posted in the southeastern part of the state.
