We have felt a noticeable change out there this afternoon. A cold front pushed through earlier today and since then we have had a big drop in temperatures. Today's high temperature will go down as 56°, but that occurred at midnight last night. Since then, we have spent most of the day with temperatures into the mid 40s.
It will get even colder tonight. Northwest winds are expected to start strong the rest of the evening and overnight tonight as wrap around precipitation moves through as well. We will see some spotty showers at times overnight with some of those mixing with snow in parts of the Tri-State. The best chance at seeing a wintry mix will be for areas north of the Ohio River. Temperatures will fall as low as 29° to 32° for most communities tonight. No accumulation is expected with the snow showers, but don't be surprised with a few flakes. Wind chills to start Sunday will be some of the coldest we have seen in a while, falling as low as 20°.
We're in for a COLD night across the Tri-State. Technically, temperatures will be right at the seasonal average, but winds gusting from the NW at 10 to 15 means our "feels like" temperatures will be closer to 21°F as we wake up.

Sunday will be the coldest day for the near future as temperatures struggle to make the mid 40s. Look for a high around 45. Skies start off mostly cloudy, but those clouds will fade through the day with more sunshine. Temperatures will feel even colder thanks to a strong northwest wind. Wind chills will be in the low 30s much of the day as wind gusts will be between 25 to 35 mph.
From there, we will warm up nicely throughout the week. Highs on Monday will be in the mid 50s and we are back into the mid 60s by Tuesday with plenty of sunshine.
