Cold Weather Advisory? The National Weather Service is no longer using Wind Chill Advisories and Warnings. Instead, NWS is now issuing two new alerts: "Cold Weather Advisory" & "Extreme Cold Weather Warning." This change was made because extreme cold is dangerous regardless of wind conditions. We may approach Cold Weather Advisory criteria Wed night into Thurs, as wind chills could drop into the -20s. A Cold Weather Advisory is issued for southern WI when temps or wind chill reach -25°F. #wiwx
It may not seem like it because we are STILL several inches above normal for yearly precipitation, but the recent dry conditions have led to severe drought conditions across much of the Midwest. This week may help. We may see too much rain this week, so keep those drains leaf-free this week if you can! #wiwx
We got beautiful northern lights here in Madison, WI. #wiwx #northernlights
Very faint aurora borealis here in Madison, WI. #wiwx #northernlights #aurora
Legitimately sends shivers down my spine every time these warnings get issued. #FLwx
A #badger game should never start at 8p ever again. 5th quarter is still running and it’s 11:30p #OnWisconsin
Good ol running touchdown to start the season! Feels good. #OnWisconsin
Very noisy little cells to my south. Constant rumble of thunder. #wiwx
Dew points are in the 80°s!!! Insane. With temperatures around 95°, that means heat indexes are 113-118°. Probably the hottest it has been across southern Wisconsin in several years. #wiwx
LOT is like “everyone gets a tornado warning”. #ilwx
