What to Know & Watch

  • Expect wintry mix early in the week — especially Sunday — so roads and sidewalks may get slick.

  • Temperatures will bounce sharply: mid-week brings a mild reprieve, but late in the week turns bitterly cold.

  • Bundle up for Friday and Saturday — overnight lows near or below 0 °F will make it dangerously cold.

  • Plan ahead if you’ll be outdoors: wind, clouds, and flurries will combine to make it feel colder than the thermometer reads.
