LIFORECAST

The worst of it, the coldest and then temperatures will start to get a little bit warmer and the breeze will die down. So we have this bitter blast in place, bitter blast in place for one more day. In the morning. We're at 27 at the bus stop. It's going to feel more like 15. So you just bundle up, at least it's dry. The sunshine helps in the afternoon. We make it to 40 for most of the day. It will feel like the twenties with the strong winds, we still have winds gusting close to 30 in some spots. Right now, you the strongest winds are tonight and then by tomorrow morning they get a little bit better. The wind will be shifting more to the west, southwest. Eventually that will allow our temperatures to get a little bit warmer. 6 a.m. 29 in Glencoe feeling like 2129 in Southampton feeling like 20. And you see the afternoon, we barely get to 40 in most spots. And throughout the day, wind chills are in the twenties. So it's another cold one just like today, we have a little bit more in the way of sunshine. And then Thursday we start to warm up clear skies overnight. No more flurries around more of a southwest wind. Thursday is my pick of the week for lots of sunshine. It will be a beautiful seasonable day. On Friday, clouds are going to move in and we have rain for the evening. So Friday afternoon, Friday night, it's raining a break on Saturday. We're in the fifties for the weekend and showers will return through early next week. It's unsettled. We'll get back to a breeze and some chilly weather for the middle of.
