to exposed skin. Expect wind chills to range from 25 below zero
to 45 below zero.

* WHERE...Portions of central, east central, south central and
southeast South Dakota, northeast Nebraska, northwest and west
central Iowa and southwest Minnesota.

* WHEN...Until noon CST Monday.

Maybe it's symbolic in some way - giant freeze across country to end 2017?

It’s 12 in PA, but suppose to drop to single digits tonight.  I can’t believe they are having the Mummers Parade tomorrow.  So many things are cancelled.

I am amazed at all these low temperatures. May everyone stay safe in this awfully cold weather. I am lucky here we will not go below 18 degrees. So glad I have a fireplace.

Right now it's -27C WITHOUT the wind chill which brings it to -37C.

Yeah this year is going out with a big shiver.

My teen grandkids moved back from Florida (Hurricane Irma)....and into a deep freeze.

Crazy

Happy New Year, everyone!!

I live in Georgia, so it doesn't get near as cold as some are experiencing! We're supposed to be at 28 degrees F tonight, so it will seem very, very cold to us. I grew up in Illinois, though, so I do remember living in the kind of extreme conditions you're posting about. I hope everybody affected by this cold snap stays safe and warm! :thumbsup:

Coldest New Year here near Chicago in years so glad we did not make any plans this year.  Glad to stay home and watch the New Year come in on the TV
