An arctic cold front is currently entering the state and will push through today. Ahead of the front, scattered snow flurries and snow showers are moving through.

Expect flurries and snow showers to continue through the day as the front passes through. Additionally, temperatures will drop this afternoon and winds will increase, making it feel even colder.

Skies will clear tonight, allowing temperatures to plummet. Lows will bottom out in the mid teens to around 20 by tomorrow morning. The cold temperatures, combined with strong northwest winds will make it feel close to 0 degrees at times.

Tomorrow will be sunny but windy and cold, with afternoon highs in the low 30s. Northwest winds will gust to near 25 mph.

Temperatures will moderate as we move into mid week and towards the latter half of the week. After another cold night tomorrow night, highs on Wednesday will reach the low 40s under mostly sunny skies.
