The myth about the cold
Some who live in Southern Minnesota speculate that because it is uncomfortably cold in the Twin Cities it must be even more so in Ely. Not so! Because we do not have the wide open spaces of the plains of southern Minnesota, and because the air here is very dry in winter, we do not have the driving winds and biting humidity as in the south. Because the cold does not penetrate, if properly dressed you can comfortably stay outside for extended periods of time, even in low temperatures.
