This morning was in the single digits once again with wind chills below zero, and despite a sunny day, highs only climbed into the 20s and wind chills in the single digits and teens. We will see a few clouds tonight, otherwise it is cold once again with a low of 7 in Milwaukee to near 0 inland. At least the wind dies down tonight. Clouds increase on Thursday with a high of 26 and a light SE breeze. The clouds will bring a few flurries late Thursday night into early Friday morning, but the accumulating snow will stay in northern Illinois. Once we get the flurries and out of here Friday morning, we see afternoon sunshine with highs above freezing.
