Still think the weather isn't changing?......Temperature records were broken across the region Thursday. The thermometer climbed to 105 degrees in Newark, N.J., surpassing the previous August record of 103 set in 1946. In New York's Central Park, it was a record-breaking 103.

Hartford, Conn., broke its record at 101, while Raleigh, N.C., broiled at an all-time high of 100 degrees.

In Duluth, Minn., a town along Lake Superior that is known for its chilly temps, five people have died this week because of the heat. The victims all lived in apartments or rooms with poor ventilation. Temperatures were in the low 90s when they were found.

"It's terrible," said county medical examiner Dr. Thomas Uncini, "In my time, there's never been anything like this."

In Baltimore, where the mercury climbed to 101 on Thursday, the city's health commissioner said heat was a factor in the deaths of at least three people this week.

Sounds like things got cooler after 77.
