To say we are in a brutal weather pattern would be an understatement. This has the potential to go down as one of the coldest stretches on record across our region. The next week to 10 days may cause a lot of hardship in our region. This is some scary cold, folks.<\/span><span style=\"font-family: arial; color: #000000; font-size: small;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-family: arial; color: #000000; font-size: small;\"><br \/>\nLet&#8217;s start with what we have out there today and that&#8217;s some nasty cold. A band of snow moves through early in the day as another shot of arctic air sinks in. Temps may not get out of the single digits for some areas this afternoon. Gusty winds will make it feel from -5 to -15.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/sirocco.accuweather.com\/nx_mosaic_640x480_public\/sir\/inmaSIRKY_.gif\" width=\"565\" height=\"367\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kymesonet.org\/wxmaps\/tair_f_large.png?nowtime=1325915126\" width=\"479\" height=\"208\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Lows by Friday morning will drop to 5 above to 5 below. Winds and clouds will begin to increase by the end of the day ahead of our next snow maker. This potent system will zip in here Friday night and Saturday with snow becoming likely.

We&#8217;re likely to fall into the single digits by late Monday afternoon and may go below zero before the evening is finished. Temps by Tuesday morning may go well below zero.
