An arctic blast will follow our snow chances Monday with a below zero start to our Tuesday. Highs by Tuesday afternoon will only reach the mid to upper single digits in most areas.Relief from the frigid cold will slide in through the latter half of the week as sunshine and a southwest wind return. We’ll top out in the upper 20s by Thursday and back above average to close out the work week.With rising temps, we’ll see rising rain chances for next weekend with our best chance for rain sliding in next Sunday.
