Good afternoon, everyone. Bitterly cold air continues to push into the region and will do so through the middle of the week. Beyond that, things turn very active once again with a couple of systems that have strong to severe thunderstorm look to them.

In the short-term… It’s the heart of winter. Temps are struggling into the 20s this afternoon with single digit wind chills. A few snow showers and flurries will put down hit and run light accumulations in the east…

Another system dives from the northwest on Tuesday and could touch off additional snow showers and flurries. That’s showing up on the GFS…

The next system zips in here on Thursday and should have a streak of snow ahead of it, with some rain to end it on Friday…

Temps surge behind that into the coming weekend and that may set the stage for high winds and strong storms as a system ejects from the plains into the Great Lakes…

Enjoy the day and take care.
