Light Snow Today as Arctic Cold Drives Bitter Wind Chills Monday

A fast-moving pattern swaps minor snowfall for a sharp cold front that delivers gusty, mid-winter conditions to start the week.

Overview

  • Light snow and flurries are spreading across several regions Sunday with generally a dusting to 1–2 inches, including around Detroit, with localized higher totals in some northern and inland spots such as parts of New Hampshire and Iowa.
  • A stronger push of Arctic air arrives late Sunday into Monday, with gusts near 20–25 mph dropping wind chills to the single digits or below zero in places despite highs only in the teens and 20s.
  • Overnight light snow or freezing drizzle could create slick patches and black ice for early Monday commutes, especially on untreated roads and elevated surfaces.
  • Temperatures rebound Tuesday into Wednesday for many areas, with 30s to 40s and a chance of rain or a rain–snow mix, including mid-40s potential in parts of New England and upper 40s around Baltimore on Wednesday.
  • Northern zones face the harshest cold and snow chances, with Minnesota starting near or below zero and a few inches possible there Monday evening, while forecasters track additional cold shots and light snow later this week.
