Forecast Discussion:

It will be very cold tonight with lows ranging from -8 to 3. Wind chills, although the wind won’t be too bad, will range from 10 to 20 below.

Bright sun is on the way Friday but it will be cold with highs in single digits to low teens. High pressure crests over us Friday night and it will be VERY cold. I think the coldest areas, with light wind, clear sky and snow on the ground, will reach as low as -20 to -25. Most of the area will be below 0 but a wide range is likely. Lows range from -20 to -3.

Sunday brings a few snow showers with the passage of a cold front. Highs stay in the mid 20s and drop back into the single digits Monday morning.

A weak clipper moves through Tuesday and brings a decent chance of light snow. There could be some minor accumulations. Highs could climb to around 30. Another shot of very cold air arrives behind the low with highs Wednesday and Thursday in the teens.
