LANSING, Mich. — We are starting our Tuesday with extreme cold across our neighborhoods. The Cold Weather Advisory is still in affect across all of our neighborhoods through 9 AM Tuesday morning with winds chills as cold as 20 below zero.
However, strong winds out of the southwest are aiding in warming our temperatures gradually this morning ahead of a frontal passage that is bringing snow to neighborhoods a bit further northwest. We could see wind gusts reach 40 mph throughout the morning hours as the frontal passage advances through.
