Discussion

An Arctic air mass has pushed into the eastern states and temperatures around here will be way below normal for this time of year. Despite some sunshine today, temperatures will struggle to reach the 40-degree mark for afternoon highs, and a stiff wind will make it feel even colder than the actual air temperatures. A hard and widespread freeze is in the offing for later tonight with overnight low temperatures likely way down into the lower 20’s.
