It's not exactly a polar vortex but the combination of a closed upper-level low over Vancouver Island and that blocking high over Greenland is poised to give Alberta its first sustained stretch of cold weather this winter starting this weekend.

The cold air looks to spread back east by the following weekend. Chicago is definitely in the firing line again but how much further east and south will it go?

Last night's event was a big disappointment. I didn't get any snow and didn't even notice any ice pellets. Temps stayed warmer than expected as the moisture was coming in... All I got was rain; the first batch of precip came as t-storms.
Parts of Louisiana near the MS River got a bit of snow, and the best amounts were over Mississippi.
Mostly sunny today getting up to 47F with the dewpoint getting down to 11F! The lowest it's been this winter.
Cloud cover coming in tonight will prevent temp from falling as much as it could have. Low of 28F is forecast.
Officially -63F/-53C wind chills about an hour ago here. There's cold and then there's this. Might reach that -40 mark tomorrow morning.
