Slick PM Travel Wednesday afternoon

Believe it or not our warming trend today with highs in the single digits to lower teens across the Northland. Expect one more night with lows below 0F and wind chills in the -10 to -20F range. A quick moving clipper system moves through tomorrow afternoon to make Northland roads slick just in time for the evening commute. Snow will weaken by the evening hours and temperatures are expected to climb through the early morning hours Thursday.

Temperatures make significant rebound for the rest of the work week, warming into the upper 20s to low-30s by Thursday.

Arctic air returns this weekend as temperatures free fall beginning Saturday. Cold weather advisories are possible for wind chills could be colder than -30F. Limited snow chances expected with less than a few inches of total accumulation through the upcoming week.
