Bitter Cold Weather Picture: Bitter cold air is moving in across the region as a cold front that formed in Canada moved through the area last night. This front will bring falling temperatures through the region this morning with a strong northwesterly flow off Lake Michigan which will create clouds and maybe some light snow over the area.
Round Two: There really is no break from the cold as another cold front from the north comes in over the week. This is another 'clipper' type system which may give us some light snow accumulations across the region with more snow to the north.
Through the weekend: It doesn't look like much of a rebound for the weekend either as highs will only be in the 20s.

What to watch out for:
For one it looks like bitter cold air will once again be dumping across the area. One thing to look for on this model is the bright red color. This is the core of the coldest air and has a temperature of -24 Celsius! Also low pressure is coming from the north again. While the track is not conducive for heavy snow light accumulations are certainly possible.

Continued bitter cold on Sunday as we have gateway opened up to the Arctic Circle.
