The Arctic north is here!

Within the last hour the temperatures have fallen another 6 degrees! The 8am FWA temperature was 12! At 7am it was 18. We will continue to see clouds show up today as there is quite a bit of instability with this drastic temperature fall. I had many reports of wind gusts from 40 to 48 mph.
