TUESDAY
Sunny to partly cloudy

Winds: South 5-10 mph
Fantastic January weather is in store later today. It’s freezing cold this morning with areas of frost, so bundle up out the door. Temperatures will climb quickly through the morning hours with high temperatures, a good 10 degrees above normal, in the mid 50s. Hopefully you can find some time to get outdoors for some fresh air and Vitamin D.

TUESDAY NIGHT
Mostly cloudy to overcast
Stray shower, drizzle possible
Lows: 40-45
Winds: Southwest 5-10 mph
Milder weather is expected overnight with temperatures in the 40s. Clouds will thicken and there is a chance for an isolated shower or pocket of drizzle; however, many neighborhoods will be rain-free.

WEDNESDAY
Cloudy skies
Chance evening showers
Highs: 50-56
Winds: Southwest 5-10 mph
Mild weather is expected for one more day ahead of an arctic front. Temperatures will climb into the 50s by the afternoon with cloudy skies and southwest breezes. A few showers are possible during the evening, as the cold front approaches. There’s a chance for a few sleet pellets and wet snowflakes to mix in overnight, as the cold air settles in. No snowfall accumulation is expected and precipitation totals will be less than .10 of an inch.

THURSDAY
Mostly cloudy to partly sunny
Blustery and cold
Temps: Around 32
Wind Chills: Teens & Low 20s
Winds: Northwest 10-20 mph; Gusts: 25-30 mph
Very cold air settles in Thursday with gusty winds making it feel-like the teens and 20s. Wintry weather chances continue to decrease with the cold wind the big weather story of the day. For this reason, the First Alert Weather team is on a Cold Alert Thursday for air temperatures around freezing and much lower wind chills.

FRIDAY
Partly cloudy
Highs: 32-26
Winds: South 5-15 mph
Frigid-feeling weather wraps up the work and school week. Morning temperatures will start off in the teens and 20s with single digits wind-chills for some. High temperatures will climb a little above freezing with a mix of clouds and sun.
