Brrrrrrr!

Take it seriously. From Mark Torregrossa: Arctic air is going to move into Michigan. The cold air will come with some wind, making dangerously cold wind chills. Tuesday morning the wind chills will range between -15 and -25 degrees across Lower Michigan. The Upper Peninsula could have wind chills as low as -40 degrees.

The Arctic air will be steadily infiltrating Michigan’s air Sunday and Monday with the coldest temperatures Tuesday and early Wednesday morning.

Actual temperatures will plunge to five below zero to 15 below zero for most of us in Michigan. The wind won’t be extremely strong but strong enough to send wind chills much lower than the actual temperature.
