Duluth and surrounding areas are under a cold weather advisory, which is the new verbiage for a wind chill advisory. Wind chills will drop to as cold as forty below later tonight, with the coldest temperatures expected early Thursday morning (December 12th).

The good news is that we will see a nice warmup into the weekend and it is going to feel tropical across the Northland! Other parts of the state are also dealing with cold temperatures so we aren't alone.

We are all used to the cold so you know how it goes by now! Make sure you bring your pets inside and limit your time outdoors unless it is absolutely necessary.

Frostbite can happen quick. It's a great day to work inside, read a book or watch a movie. Stay safe!
