with a snow depth now near 10" in Dekalb, IL
Dekalb, IL and much of the Midwest is bracing for sub-zero low temperatures and even sub-zero high temperatures over the next 2 days. Last night, an Alberta clipper dropped more snow than "some" expected. Dekalb's final snow total is between 4-5" from last night's system. We now have nearly a 10" snow depth here in Dekalb which means you should prepare for even lower temperatures then the models are currently forecasting. I wouldn't be at all surprised seeing a -20ºF below-zero low temperature here tonight and tomorrow night. Out the window, clear skies have already encompassed Dekalb which will lead to more radiational cooling tonight.
