The strong cold front will come through Eastern Nebraska around the early morning hours with very cold temperatures, with rapid 10-20 degree drops in temperatures. The wind gradient will increase as the front pushes through with gust from 40-50 MPH expected through noon. Light snow will also accompany the High winds which may produce extensive blowing and drifting of snowfall. Accumulation’s should be light raining from 1-2″ from I-80 on northward, generally in the Snow Advisory Area that our forecasters issued already. Highs will be in the teens most of the day with the winds continuing from 10-30 MPH in the afternoon. Wind Chills will be very brutal ranging from 0-30 below zero.
