A bitterly cold arctic airmass is currently in place for locations east of the Rockies with well below average temperatures extending from the High Plains to the East Coast. Wind chill values of 40 to 55 degrees below zero will linger within the core of the coldest air from the northern Plains into the Upper Mississippi Valley through Tuesday morning. Wind chill values that are below zero will affect a broad portion of the lower 48 extending from the southern High Plains into the Ohio River Valley and northern Mid-Atlantic region with wind chills in the teens and single digits possible for portions of the Gulf Coast. These extreme cold conditions will pose a risk of hypothermia to individuals not dressed appropriately as well pose potential for frozen pipes and damage to sensitive vegetation.
