We sure hope you had the opportunity to enjoy the unseasonably warm weather in the Northland today. We will likely see another warm day Friday, but winds will shift from the southwest to the northwest. This happens because a cold front will pass through and could create some snow squalls Friday afternoon. If any snow squalls develop, expect temporary poor visibility on the roads and does impact travel quickly. Arctic air returns this weekend as temperatures free fall beginning Saturday. Dangerously cold temperatures and wind chills are expected Saturday and lasting into Wednesday. Wind chill values as low as -30 to -45 could result in frostbite in as little as 10 minutes. Prepare now for the cold and don’t forget to bring in the pets.
