Watch out for that bitter wind!

The wind will make it feel bitterly cold for the back half of the week, with today’s high of -18 feeling like -28, and tonight’s low of -27 feeling like a rather frigid -38.  Friday isn’t much different, as the ugly overnight windchill hangs around in the morning, leading to a high of -19 and a windchill of -28.  The weekend isn’t looking a lot better with highs in the low minus-teens and snow on Saturday.  However, I’ll draw your attention to the middle of next week: EIGHT degrees on Wednesday?  We can only hope.
