Arctic Blast: Wind Chill Alerts Across the US

More than 25 million people across much of the central and northwestern US are under wind chill alerts, CNN reports. Heavy snow is expected today in several states including Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota and most of Minnesota — where the high temperatures will remain below zero, according to the National Weather Service.

This week, more than 80% of the Lower 48 will experience temperatures below freezing, with cities as far south as Atlanta, Houston and Orlando currently included on that list.

Forecasters are also predicting some in the Midwest could experience their coldest end-of-month in nearly 40 years, with air travelers likely facing cancellations and delays.
