Sunshine Sunday afternoon didn't do much to warm temperatures. Afternoon highs struggled to make it much past the double digits during the afternoon. Breezy North winds held wind chills below zero all day.
Breezy winds will continue through Sunday evening pushing wind chills as low as twenty degrees below zero by Midnight. After that, winds will lighten up some as high pressure moves closer to northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin. This will allow wind chills to 'warm' slightly be morning, but still remain around ten degrees below zero.
Surface temperatures will fall rather quickly as well over the freshly fallen snow from Friday night. Already at 6:30pm temperatures temperatures are falling close to zero degrees. Under mostly clear skies, light winds and recent snow temperatures will quickly fall below zero, some places well below zero, by Monday morning. Right now the forecast low for Rockford is eight below, but some places (typically colder spots) could get even lower.
