All that new winter gear you probably got for Christmas is about to come in handy over the next week.
You likely still have the tags on the new scarf or gloves. It’s been a rather mild winter so far. But that’s about to change and that change basically starts today.
We’re going to see temps drop to just above freezing late this afternoon. It’ll be a blustery day, too, so it’ll feel colder.
Then, get ready. Because we’re about to feel all that winter has to offer over the coming week.
We’re looking at overnight lows in the mid-teens next week and highs that are high in name only.
And don’t worry, we’re still keeping an eye on that potential snowstorm for Tuesday … and maybe another one next weekend.
