An article was run on FoxNews.com on February 10, 2010 that A “Brazillian Heat Wave Kills 32 Elderly people” http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,585425,00.html  You can read the article for yourself, it’s not long, but it says that the tempurature was 102 degrees Fahrenheit that day.  As I do with most news, I researched the article and found this to be complete fraud.  If you go to weather.com and look up Santos Brazil, and go back to the 10th, you will find that it was only 86 degrees Fahrenheit that day.  See here:  http://www.weather.com/outlook/travel/businesstraveler/pastweather/BRXX0232?stn=1&when=-7

So be sure to research any news you are presented with, because no one seems to mind boldly telling lies, which are easily debunked.

(CNN) — Blistering temperatures and winds battered parts of the upper Midwest Tuesday, delivering some states the coldest weather in decades.

On the heels of a blizzard that barreled into the Northern Plains, temperatures dropped to minus 18 degrees Fahrenheit in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

In Hayward, Wisconsin, a man who was prone to sleepwalking died after exposure to the freezing temperatures there, according to CNN affiliate KDLH-TV in Duluth, Wisconsin.

Authorities said the man’s son reported him missing around noon Tuesday. Police told KDLH they found bare footprints leading from the man’s home to 190 feet away.

For Tony Williams, the temperature in Minneapolis was more than his body could handle.

After shoveling outside his home without gloves for 45 minutes in minus 17 degree weather, Williams suffered second degree frostbite, according to CNN affiliate KARE-TV.

“On his finger pads, all of his fingers and his thumb, he had the formation of blisters,” Dr. Cheryl Adkinson, an emergency physician at Hennepin County Medical Center who treated Williams, told KARE.

In Grand Forks, North Dakota, the weather was severe enough to break a record temperature from 1979, with minus 37 degrees, according to the National Weather Service.
