Serious chills tonight

Despite the sunshine in place today it's going to remain very cold this afternoon.  A continued feed of cold air from the northwest will keep temperatures rising much past the low 20s.  In fact, they may even begin to drop some later this afternoon.  Winds will become a little breezy and that will keep wind chill values today in the teens.

Tonight, the center of the arctic high will move into the Great Lakes and this will allow temperatures to bottom out very quickly once the sun sets.  It's possible you may wake up Saturday morning to single digit readings!  To make matters worse, the slightest bit of wind will put wind chills below zero.  These numbers are our in-house model wind chills by 7am Saturday.  Keep in mind that some locations could have wind chills below zero early tomorrow morning.  So if you've got an early shift or you have to let the dog out, but on the layers!  It's going to be COLD!
