Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeArctic air spread into southern Wisconsin behind deep low pressure that tracked to the north of the state. About 2,000 feet above ground level, 925 mb temperatures fell to -17C to -22C���with 925 mb winds of 20 to 30 knots. Momentum transfer of these winds to the surface produced gusty northwest winds, which combined with surface temperatures in the single digits below zero to produce wind chills between -20 to -30. The frigid wind chills began the morning of January 21st across far northern Southeast Wisconsin and most of South-central Wisconsin���then spread across the remainder of southern Wisconsin during the evening of January 21st and continued everywhere into the morning hours of January 22nd.||An interesting side note to this cold outbreak was the fact that it was one of the relatively few times Milwaukee recorded a low temperature below zero without having a snow cover.
