Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeIn the wake of a powerful winter storm, strong northwest winds and bitter cold air combined to generate very low wind chill values across parts of south-central and southeast Wisconsin. Air temperatures were in the -4F to -11F range and northwest winds were on the order of 13 to 20 knots (15 to 23 mph) with peak gusts of 22 to 30 knots (25 to 35 mph). Wind chill values dropped to -35F to -39F for 3 hours or more. Synoptically, a strong low pressure moved northeast through Minnesota while a strong cold front swept southeast through Wisconsin on the 29th. Another low pressure developed along the cold front while it was over northern Illinois on the 30th, which led to a tightening pressure gradient and stronger winds over southern Wisconsin.
