A normal question we get leading up to winter storms is "how much snow will we see?" This time around, snow amounts aren't the story. The combination of strong winds + plunging temperatures + falling snow is the problem. Travel will be nasty Thurs PM - Friday.

Be careful with the extreme heat, which will be around today and tomorrow! Avoid heat-related emergencies by staying hydrated, limiting outdoor exertion & wearing lightweight, light-colored clothing.

Coldest night so far this winter tonight! Away from the lake and city, the actual air temperatures will drop below zero, with double digit subzero lows possible at a couple of the typically coldest locations. Winds will be light, but enough for bitter cold wind chills!
