Bitter Cold, More Snow Likely This Week

Strong winds and bitter cold are making for a hazardous combination.

National Weather Service meteorologist Jim Lee says some areas of the state may see wind chill indices of 30-below zero, and he says they won’t be getting much better anytime soon.

While parts of the state had unseasonable high temperatures in the 60s a little over a week ago, this frigid forecast is more in line with wintertime.

The National Weather Service is predicting one to three inches of snow late Tuesday night.
