Clipper Snow Tonight, Arctic Blast This Weekend to Drive Midwest Wind Chills to -30

A stronger Arctic surge early next week threatens dangerous Upper Midwest wind chills with a possible Deep South freeze.

Overview

  • Winter Weather Advisories cover parts of central Indiana from Thursday evening into Friday morning with 2–4 inches expected and a slick Friday commute likely.
  • Across the Upper Midwest and Great Lakes, successive clippers bring spotty light snow — often south of Chicago — before a plunge to single-digit highs, subzero lows and wind chills as low as -15 to -30 this weekend.
  • Metro Detroit remains cold with occasional light snow, and wind chills are projected to fall to about -10 to -15 Sunday and Monday mornings.
  • Mid-Atlantic forecasts highlight a blustery Thursday with 15–25 mph winds and gusts near 35–40 mph, with only light snow chances Friday night into early Sunday around Baltimore.
  • Along the Gulf Coast, model guidance has trended colder, signaling a potential freeze late Sunday into Monday for inland areas north of I-10 in southeast Louisiana and Mississippi.
