The arctic blast that's enveloped Maine this week is affecting fishermen, tree trimmers, utility crews and others that have to work outdoors.
With nighttime temperatures forecast to be in negative territory all week, workers are remaining stoic about staying warm.
The Portland Press Herald reports that the arctic blast that’s enveloped Maine this week is affecting fishermen, tree trimmers, utility crews and others that have to work outdoors.
Kyle Gosselin, who was installing a gas line on Congress Street in Portland, said “you just gotta deal with it.”
“This morning it was 12 below zero when I got in my truck at 4:30,” Gosselin told the Press Herald. “Basically, in this weather, you have to stay busy to stay warm.”
The cold weather is expected to be with us all week.
