Arctic air plunges in even further on Sunday and with a chance of some clear breaks early in the day, temperatures could plummet into the mid-minus teens with wind chills down to -25 possible in the morning.
We will warm up to around -8 during the day as clouds move back in with a slight chance of flurries, with wind chills again making it feel like the minus teens right through the afternoon.
