A fresh slug of arctic air will keep temperatures in the Midwest and Plains below mid-winter averages tomorrow.

Snow showers and squalls will plague areas from the Great Lakes southward into eastern Kentucky. The heaviest squalls (lake-effect) will target southwest Michigan and northeast Ohio where local totals could reach a foot. Gusty winds will plague most areas.

High temperatures are predicted to range from the single digits in parts of southern Minnesota and northern Iowa to the 30s in portions of the western Dakotas, south-central Kansas and much of Kentucky.
