Overall, we are about to enter a quiet stretch of weather (no major storm systems to contend with). However, we are going to slip into the deep freeze for a few days.
Look for a lot of sunshine Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. But our high temps will struggle to get out of the teens Wednesday & Thursday.
Be prepared for a very frigid start to the day Thursday, as morning temps will likely be below zero in many areas. Any little gust of wind at all will send wind chills into the teens below zero.
As we move toward Friday, temps start to climb out of the basement. We should rebound into the 30s Friday afternoon with more sunshine.
Over the weekend, an even bigger warm up comes our way. Highs will be in the low to middle 40s for most!
Once we get into Monday and Tuesday, more chances of rain (and even a little snow) make a return to the state.
