Headlines Through Tonight

Cold Wind Chills Move In

Gusty Winds Will Cause Blowing and Drifting Snow

Winter Storm Warnings and Winter Weather Advisories remain in effect through midnight along and east of I-29. Snow and blowing snow will persist across most of the area through late tonight. Please monitor the latest road conditions and forecast details before attempting to travel!

With a fresh snowpack across the area and breezy conditions, a cold night is ahead with lows in the single digits to low-10s. With northwesterly winds around 10-20 mph tonight, wind chills will drop below zero for many of us, so be sure to bundle up if you have to head out tonight/early tomorrow morning! Wind chills drop below zero for at least some of us through Tuesday night, but Wednesday night is shaping up to be even colder with wind chills potentially dropping below -10 degrees in many locations.

North to northwest winds will persist the evening into the overnight hours, with gusts of 25 to 35 mph. These winds will produce areas blowing and drifting snow, reducing visibility below a mile in open areas. Wind gusts of 20 to 30 mph should continue through around sunrise Sunday and then start tapering off during the daytime hours Sunday. If out driving today, please be careful not to drive faster than you can react safely to what you can see ahead of you. Keep your highlights ON, even during the day.
