Special weather statement from the NWS regarding sub zero wind chills

…Wind Chills Will Drop Below Zero Again Tonight…

A fresh surge of Arctic air will overspread the region tonight
resulting in low temperatures in the single digits above zero.
Northwest winds will persist and may even become gusty at times
tonight. The result will take wind chills down below zero for much
of the night. The coldest wind chills are expected near sunrise
when they will range from 10 below zero near Interstate 64 in
southern Illinois and southwest Indiana to near 5 below zero over
much of west Kentucky and southeast Missouri.

Those waiting for busses in the morning and others who must be
outside should bundle up as much as possible and limit their time
outdoors. In addition, make sure outdoor pets have adequate
shelter from the cold.
