THE LOW 20S AND WIND CHILLS IN THE TEENS.

SHORT TERM
(THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH MONDAY)
ISSUED AT 229 PM EST SUN FEB 1 2026
TEMPS ARE ON TRACK TO TOP OUT IN THE LOW TO UPPER 30S ACROSS MUCH
OF THE AREA TODAY WITH MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES ACROSS THE AREA. AS THE
TROUGH PUSHES EASTWARD AND A SECONDARY SHORTWAVE PUSHES THROUGH
THE MAIN FLOW, CLOUDY SKIES WILL BE POSSIBLE FOR TOMORROW BUT NO
PRECIPITATION EXPECTED. RIDGING PUSHES INTO THE AREA WHICH BEGINS
THE SLOW WARM UP INTO THE WEEK.
FOR TOMORROW MORNING, TEMPS WILL REACH DOWN INTO THE UPPER TEENS
TO LOW 20S ACROSS THE AREA WITH WIND CHILLS IN THE UPPER TEENS FOR
MOST AREAS. WILL STAY JUST OUT OF COLD WEATHER ADVISORY CRITERIA
BUT DO KEEP THE COLD WEATHER TIPS IN MIND. WINDS WILL BEGIN TO
SLACKEN INTO THE OVERNIGHT WHICH SHOULD HELP WITH THE WIND CHILLS.
ANY AREAS THAT STILL HAVE SNOWFALL ON UNTREATED ROADWAYS ARE
LIKELY TO SEE A REFREEZE OVERNIGHT LEADING TO PATCHY BLACK ICE
POTENTIAL.
