NWS – Special Weather Statement

The National Weather Service has issued a special weather statement regarding wind chills dropping below zero again tonight. Meteorologists say a fresh surge of Arctic air will overspread the region tonight resulting in temperatures dropping into the single digits above zero. Northwest winds will persist and may even become gusty at times tonight, resulting in wind chills below zero for much of the night. Meteorologists indicate the coldest wind chills are expected near sunrise when they will range from 10 below zero near Interstate 64 in southern Illinois and southwest Indiana to near 5 below zero over much of western Kentucky and southeast Missouri.

Metorologists are warning those waiting for busses in the morning and others who must be outside to bundle up as much as possible and limit your time outdoors. In addition, they are asking you to make sure outdoor pets have adequate shelter from the cold.
