Dangerously cold temperatures will be in place tonight to ring in the new year for many locations located east of the Rocky Mountains. Locations across the Northeast and as far south as Kansas into Ohio will be below zero at midnight with wind chills of -20 to -40 for many of these locations. Therefore, locations from northeastern Montana into portions of the Midwest and Northeast are under a Wind Chill Warning with Wind Chill Advisories in place as far south as the central Gulf Coast through Monday morning. Monday's highs will stay below freezing for much of Texas to the Carolinas which is a good 20 to 30 degrees below average.
Winter weather advisories are currently in effect for western and northern Texas as well as across the lower Mississippi valley where light accumulations of snow and freezing rain could cause slick conditions through Monday morning. Monday evening through Tuesday will be mostly dry across the lower 48 with the exception of rain showers for Florida and snow showers the Great Lakes. Snowfall accumulations downwind of the Great Lakes are expected to be locally heavier across the eastern U.P. of Michigan and east of Lakes Erie and Ontario where additional totals of roughly 6-12 inches are in the forecast through Tuesday evening.
Needless to say, temperatures will remain well below average for most locations east of the Rockies into the middle of the week but some moderation is expected across the central and northern High Plains starting Tuesday with downslope flow developing. The Southwest will remain warm and dry into the middle of the week with temperatures ranging between 5 to 15 degrees above early January normals.

It's 10 degrees here, wind chill about -5 to -10 below. I was actually out and about today doing my grocery shopping and running some errands ahead of tonight's festivities. Didn't feel that bad to me surprisingly.

It's been below freezing constantly since Christmas Eve and the 10 day forecast shows high temperatures staying below freezing with some below zero nights (including tonight). Possible snowstorm later this week.
I am dreading getting on the train platform Tuesday to go back to work. Normally the cold doesn't bother me too much but standing on the train platform in pitch darkness at 6am in a business suit is about the coldest experience you can have!
One of the guys I ride the train with says he wears women's pantyhose on subzero mornings with his business suit. He wears regular black socks over his feet so nobody notices. Says it keeps him warm. Says Joe Namath wore pantyhose on cold days when he played for the Jets. I'm not sure I want to go that route but it's going to be very cold on that train platform!
