Cold grips the U.S.

Freeze Watches/Warnings and Frost Advisories extend from the northeast down to north Texas this morning.  The jetstream over the weekend dropped all the way to the gulf pulling down some very cold air to the south.  Over 600 record low temperatures were set this past week and Sioux City, IA fell to a whopping 15 degrees Sunday morning! 

Freeze Warnings will continue through 9am for Winnebago, Boone, McHenry, Ogle, Lee and DeKalb counties as the mercury has dropped into the low 30s under clear skies.  Increasing cloud cover and a southerly wind will keep temperatures a little warmer tonight.
