Good morning from Minneapolis. It's -13℉, the winds are light from the northwest, the barometer is Very Dry, and visibility is 10 miles at the international airport.

Some schools are closed, including those in Minneapolis, St. Paul, and Rochester.

One more day of this cold before a warming trend begins.

No precipitation expected over the next 7 days.

"They say you're not a real bike courier in Edmonton until you do a couple of winters. …

"Why do we do it when it's minus 40 and the wind is blowing and we're cranky and cold? Why do we do it?"

Still image from the film "Snow Warrior" about a bicycle courier in Edmonton, Alberta. Mariah is negotiating "brown sugar" snow on a busy street. "People hate us. They hate when we're on the roads. They hate when we're on the sidewalks. Drivers tend to not think about anyone but themselves."
