Today’s Forecast; Cold & quiet; Icy Patches

From Fox 17 Weather Ready Meteorologist Terri DeBoer: Cold and quiet conditions are on tap to finish the week. Temperatures will only reach the low-teens for highs, so icy patches will still linger on area roads. Wind chills will hover near zero.The pattern has started the shift to dryer conditions as an Arctic high nudges closer. This will change the wind direction out of the east/northeast the next few days, keeping lake effect snow away. Today’s highs will be around 10 to the low teens. Roads will stay slick and icy as temperatures remain below the point where the road salt will be effective. With the high pressure in place today and through the weekend, we will finally get some sunshine each day! Morning temperatures remain very cold, around or a bit below zero, but afternoons will warm up into the 20s by Sunday. Next week features highs in the 20s and chances for light snow.
