Dangerously cold temperatures will be in place tonight to ring in the new year for many locations located east of the Rocky Mountains. Locations across the Northeast and as far south as Kansas into Ohio will be below zero at midnight with wind chills of -20 to -40 for many of these locations. Therefore, locations from northeastern Montana into portions of the Midwest and Northeast are under a Wind Chill Warning with Wind Chill Advisories in place as far south as the central Gulf Coast through Monday morning. Monday's highs will stay below freezing for much of Texas to the Carolinas which is a good 20 to 30 degrees below average.
Winter weather advisories are currently in effect for western and northern Texas as well as across the lower Mississippi valley where light accumulations of snow and freezing rain could cause slick conditions through Monday morning. Monday evening through Tuesday will be mostly dry across the lower 48 with the exception of rain showers for Florida and snow showers the Great Lakes. Snowfall accumulations downwind of the Great Lakes are expected to be locally heavier across the eastern U.P. of Michigan and east of Lakes Erie and Ontario where additional totals of roughly 6-12 inches are in the forecast through Tuesday evening.
Needless to say, temperatures will remain well below average for most locations east of the Rockies into the middle of the week but some moderation is expected across the central and northern High Plains starting Tuesday with downslope flow developing. The Southwest will remain warm and dry into the middle of the week with temperatures ranging between 5 to 15 degrees above early January normals.

Now it’s down to 21. Dogs and I are getting ready to go to bed. Smaller one (91 lb.) sleeps with me; 120 lb. Great Dane has the couch. Pray for me. Dogs own the place.
19 with a wind chill of 12.
SW Virginia.
In Atlanta. A bit south from you. 22 tonight. About 10 with wind chill. Not too unusual for winter in Atlanta (we get a lot colder than most think), but what’s unusual is the duration of the frigidity. Predicted to last at least one week.
If you think your cat does a good job creating a warm bed space, try a 91 lb. dog. Of course, then there comes the small problem of getting the dog out of the space so a human can use it, an act the dog thinks is dog abuse.

It's the result of God telling the tree hugging atheists to get on their knees and pray for some "global warming".
Overcoat. Not as nice as Trump’s however!
And you can add the hat. He never hid that wave of apricot tresses. Even if your coat wasn’t custom made for you in London.
