Monday: The MLK Day holiday is looking very cold with morning lows in the upper 20s and low 30s along with wind chills in the teens!

Tuesday: This is the day to watch. Light snow and hazardous ice are expected to begin early in the morning, and it could stay slushy all day with high temps in the mid 30s along with a blanket of rain, sleet and probably some snow.
