CST/ THIS EVENING TO 11 AM MST /NOON CST/ MONDAY...
...EXTREME COLD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM MONDAY AFTERNOON
THROUGH TUESDAY MORNING...

* WHAT...For the Cold Weather Advisory, very cold wind chills as low
  as 24 below expected. For the Extreme Cold Watch, dangerously cold
  wind chills as ranging from 15 below to 30 below zero.

* IMPACTS...The dangerously cold wind chills as low as 25 below zero

  time looks to be limited. Monday night and Tuesday morning
  continue to look to be the coldest of the event.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

To prevent water pipes from freezing; insulate or drain or allow
them to drip slowly.

Monitor the latest forecasts and warnings for updates.

Make sure outdoor animals have a warm, dry shelter, food, and

portable heaters are used correctly. Do not use generators or grills
