Arctic plunge to bring sub-zero temps and snow; take extra care to stay heart healthy

The exertion of shoveling snow in extreme cold can be deadly. According to the American Heart Association, the world’s leading nonprofit organization focused on heart and brain health for all, research shows that the exertion of shoveling snow may lead to an increased risk of a heart attack or sudden cardiac arrest.
