Be prepared if we get this storm. Be safe and stay warm.

All the attention is of course on the snow, but we really should be looking at the bitter cold with extra awareness as that will bring the greatest impacts locally. Some dangerous cold ahead around and after this winter system slides by to our south. Any snow is just insult on top of injury in my opinion.

01/21/2026

Be prepared for the cold weather coming our way. Stay safe and warm in the coming days. Please take precautions to protect yourself and avoid prolonged exposure to the extreme cold.
