Gary�okay, call him by his new name�Garrison Kellior never mentions it on Prairie Home Companion, but Lake Woebegone, Kellior's fictional Northern Minnesota hometown, is not just a place where the women are strong, the men are smart and the kids are good-looking.

It's also a place where it's possible to freeze your buns off in late June.

Going to Brainerd this weekend? People, Minnesota cold is said to have turned back the Vikings, and Brainerd is in the middle of a cold snap. As this is written, at o-dark-hundred Thursday morning, it's currently a crisp 44 degrees in Brainerd. Highs for Saturday are not supposed to top 65. In fact, the low for Saturday night is to be 41.

Dress warm.
