WEATHER
Bundle the kids up today!
Yesterday was predicted to be sunny but it was pretty cloudy and dreary with all the wind, so although tomorrow’s forecast shows sunny skies, we won’t hold out too much hope.
It will most likely be cold, windy and chilly tomorrow. Wake up to a balmy 29 degrees and mostly clear skies. (clearing throat in disbelief) Temperatures are predicted to rise into the 30’s and even reach 40 by 3 p.m. We recommend some scarfs, hats and maybe some long-johns for those going to spend significant amount of time outside tomorrow.
Expect gusty winds throughout the day reaching about 21 mph at times. Hang on to your hats were in for a blow! Friday wake up to 26 degrees, make sure you have antifreeze in your cars and those pipes are wrapped.
Folks Winter is officially here!
