It's HOW Cold?!?! The Coldest Places To Live In The World

Yes, Russia and Iceland are on the list, but so is a town within a day's drive of NC.

Brrrrrr. This past weekend was raw and uncomfortable. And it made us wonder, “Where are the coldest places on earth, where people actually live”? USA TODAY  looked at data from 24-7 Wall Street.

The study reviewed the average temperature of the 3 coldest months at more than 2,000 weather stations worldwide. The main stipulation: people had to be living there.

You might imagine Russia, Sweden and Iceland are on the list. (You can see the entire list of course!)
Well, a town just a day's drive from NC  made the top 30 as well. Really.  Lordstown, OH is a 7.5 hour drive. The average temperature of the three coldest months is 32°!

Meterologist Terran Kirksey takes a look at some of the coldest places in NC.
