Brief spell of Arctic air arrives early next week

Temperatures are expected to be near or slightly above average through the weekend before a quick blast of Arctic air surges in to start next week.

Monday will start with temperatures in the single digits with highs likely not getting out of the single digits by afternoon under a mostly cloudy sky.

Tuesday will likely start with temperatures in the single digits below zero with highs returning to the single digits by afternoon.

Wind chills on Monday and Tuesday morning will likely be in the range of -10° to -20°.

The cold spell of Arctic air is expected to be brief as temperatures climb back to near average with highs around or in the lower 20s on Wednesday and to near or in the lower 30s the rest of the week before some more Arctic air arrives next weekend with temperatures tumbling.
