Dangerous Arctic Cold and Biting Winds Grip Kentucky
"A powerful arctic air mass is plunging across the Commonwealth today. Expect bone-chilling temperatures and sharp northwest winds that will drive wind chills into the single digits and below zero. While skies will be mostly clear for the majority of the state, the primary story is the intense cold air advection that will cause temperatures to drop or remain nearly flat throughout the afternoon."
