expected from the I-35 corridor and east across Northwest

generally between 5 below and 5 above zero. With the strong north
to northwest winds, wind chill values may dip to 15 to 25 below
zero. Frostbite can develop on exposed skin in 10 to 30 minutes

Wind gusts to 60 mph in southern Cook County Sunday late evening
and through Monday daytime may create localized power outages and
downed trees. Localized gusts around 50 mph also expected in
southern Lake County north of Two Harbors.
.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Monday through Saturday
The winter storm lingers into Monday morning. Strong north winds
will continue to cause some blowing and drifting of the freshly
fallen snow. Lake effect snowfall continues into Monday morning
along the South Shore for areas east of Ashland.
Temperatures will trend to near or below zero at night most of
this week. Wind chills of 15 to 25 below zero are forecast Monday
morning and then each morning from Wednesday through Friday.
