The entire Stateline (minus Stephenson, Jo Daviess, Carroll, and Whiteside counties) is under a Wind Chill Advisory from 9pm Thursday night until 11am Friday morning. An area of Arctic high pressure will spread into the Midwest and upper Great Lakes tomorrow afternoon and evening giving us what could be our coldest airmass of the season. In addition to the cold, winds out of the northwest could gust over 30 mph. Low temperatures will drop below zero across much of the area tomorrow night with wind chill values dropping to 20 to 29 degrees below zero. Excessive exposure to the cold, windy weather could result in hypothermia or frostbite if precautions are not taken to protect yourself. So if you must venture outside tomorrow night, be sure to wear a hat, gloves, warm jacket, and a scarf or something similar to protect your neck and face.
