-26 is what it’ll feel like Saturday morning with wind chill under cloudy skies with a good chance of flurries, particularly in the morning as a low pressure system swings by south of the city.
Thermometers should climb up into the mid-minus teens for a daytime high in the afternoon hours, feeling like the -20s with wind chill all day.
Sunday
Arctic air tries to push in on Sunday, dropping temperatures back into the -20s in the evening with a chance of snow as a push of Pacific moisture tries to push north.
We are on the edge of the snow zone, so we’ll continue to keep an eye on the situation.
Work Week Outlook
Another pulse of moisture pushes in on Monday with snow likely once again under cloudy skies and a morning low in the mid-minus 20s with a daytime high into the minus teens.
Clouds will finally clear late Tuesday to give us mostly sunny skies mid-week as an arctic high drops us back into cool air.
Daytime highs will drop back into the low teens with lows down as low as -28 with wind chills approaching extreme cold warning criteria of -40 as we dive into the deep freeze mid-week.
