It is going to be frigidly cold this weekend in Illinois.
Ed Shimon at the National Weather Service in Lincoln says after we'll ring in the new year with a wet weather pattern. He indicates get ready for at least a wintry mix.
Sunday morning, the wind chill could be anywhere from five to ten below zero. Shimon says the whole day is going to be cold but make sure you bundle up, especially in the morning hours if you're going out.
The week ahead, temperatures will level out for this time of the year but later in the week, look out for the return of that wintry mix.
