A cold weather advisory remains in effect Monday for the entire Chicago area, with wind chills as low as -25 degrees this morning and temperatures expected to remain in the single digits for much of the day.
The advisory, in effect until 12 p.m., comes after a powerful winter storm that tore across multiple states brought heavy lake effect snow to the Chicago area Sunday, leading to canceled flights, dangerous road conditions and as much as nine inches of snowfall in some parts.
By late afternoon, the snow in northeast Illinois snow eventually came to an end, moving into northwest Indiana as the winds shifted, NBC 5 Storm Team Meteorologist Pete Sack. But the cold still remains.
“It feels like 15 below,” Sack said early Monday morning. “Very cold conditions out there.”
The cold Monday morning was also leading to dozens of schools closed, with some shifting to remote learning for the day.
More sunshine was expected Monday, but that wouldn’t do in terms of temperatures, Sack said. Weather conditions would be much of the same on Tuesday and Wednesday, Sack said, with highs in the teens and wind chills below zero both days.
“We’re going to hold onto the cold,” Sack said. “Do we have any relief coming our way? Sadly, no.”
When will the cold end?
An 8-14 day temperature outlook from the National Weather Service for Feb. 2 through 8 shows average temperatures for the Chicago area, with cold air off to the east, and warmer air to the west.
“Eventually we’ll tap into that, but not anytime soon,” Sack said. “Certainly not this week.”
