Local View
Locally it we will have a cold day Tuesday, with sunshine and highs only in the low teens, winds will be calm, so wind chills should not be bad Lows will be in the low single digits. Wednesday a weaker storm system will push across the Upper Midwest, it should bring snow and some point Wednesday, but accumulations will not be anything significant, I'm calling for 1-3" of snow at this time. Temperatures will be a bit warmer with the falling snow in the upper teens, and lows in the mid single digits. Thursday, cold air will rush back in behind the system and skies will clear making for a cold sunny day. highs will be in the upper single digits, and lows will be in the single digits below zero to teens below zero.

Looking Ahead
An active but chilly time ahead looks to continue through the rest of this week. Another light snow event looks to occur Friday the 7th, cold air follows behind it then it's dry and cold behind this storm system for the weekend. Things warm up a bit by the week of Monday the 10th. Then the models show a storm system for the 11th which could bring some more snow. Then around the 14th a strong storm system passes south of the area, dragging bitterly cold air of the 14th, a clipper passes through on the 16th and it remains chilly. Then another chuck of bitterly cold air comes down in time for the 18th. This cold air will be something to keep an eye on, Below zero highs are possible.
