Fantastic January weather is in store later today. It’s freezing cold this morning with areas of frost, so bundle up out the door.

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

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.

Mostly cloudy to partly sunny
Blustery and cold

Wind Chills: Teens & Low 20s

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.
