Nationwide Deep Freeze Sets December Cold Records

The deep freeze shivers cities from the Plains to the South with many reporting record December lows. Casper Wyoming hit 34 below, Chicago 25 below, and Detroit and Chicago recorded fatal cold incidents as storms and frost bite warnings spread. Blizzard and ice events stretched from the West Coast to New England with potential flooding risks inland.
