MILWAUKEE – Wind chills will remain 15-to-30 below zero on Tuesday, but there is light at the end of the tunnel. A slight warm up is on the way, according to Storm Team 4 chief meteorologist Brian Niznansky.
“It looks like we get a surge of a warmth Sunday into Monday,” Niznansky told Wis. Morning News on Tuesday. “We could be talking about temperatures well above freezing. Maybe in the 40’s.”
On Tuesday, the dangerously cold wind chills prompted Milwaukee Public School to cancel class.
