Arctic air stays in place for the week ahead

What We’re Tracking

• Partly cloudy, cold Monday
• Very cold first half of the week
• Moderating temperatures next weekend

Very cold air in place at the start of the week, bringing single-digit lows with wind chills near 10 to 15 degrees below zero. With the storm system now well to the east, winds will start to taper off today along with a partly cloudy sky.

That cold air lingers through much of the week. The snow on the ground will have a difficult time melting much even with sunshine. Highs will generally be in the upper 10s to near 20° through midweek.

By the weekend, temperatures should be climbing to near or just above freezing for a couple hours each day. Aside from some clouds and a slight chance for a few snow showers on Thursday, the week ahead is looking mainly dry.
