INTERNATIONAL FALLS, MINNESOTA, USA

11/14/13

Hi Everyone. Today's trip is to a special place because I have a special
friend who lives there. We are going to the place that is known
as "the coldest place in the lower 48 states",
International Falls, Minnesota.

International Falls is a city in and the county seat of Koochiching
County, Minnesota, United States. The population was 6,424 at
the 2010 census.

International Falls is located on the Rainy River directly across from
Fort Frances, Ontario, Canada. The two cities are connected by the
Fort Frances – International Falls International Bridge. There is a
major U.S. Customs and Border Protection Port of Entry on the
International Falls side of the toll bridge, and a Canadian Customs
entry point on the north side of the bridge.

Known as "The Icebox Of The Nation", International Falls has long bitterly
cold winters and warm, humid summers. January is normally the coldest
month of the year with average temperatures between -7 and 15 degrees
Fahrenheit. July is normally the warmest month with average
temperatures between 53 and 78 degrees F. They do have a record low
temperature of -55 degrees F. June is normally the rainiest month
with an average of 3.92 inches, with a yearly total of 24.12 inches of
rain. Although it is not unusual to have snow 9 months out of the
year, the snowiest months are normally December and January with an
average of 15 inches each month, with a yearly total of 72 inches.

I hope you enjoy this trip to International Falls, Minnesota.
