December will end just as it began – COLD. The New Year will be ushered in by frigid temperatures, with no end in sight to the big cold.
The Week Ahead
Mix of Sun and Cloud

Increasing Cloudiness
-28°C / -34°C

-23°C / -34°C
Monday
Today will be just another cold day. Luckily the wind won’t be particularly strong, though that’s little consolation. Tonight will be extremely cold, with low temperatures near -40C not out of the question in some traditional cold spots. It doesn’t look like Winnipeg will hit the -40C mark, but it could be close.
With extremely cold temperatures on the way tonight, take part and guess exactly how cold it’s going to get!
Tuesday
After a very cold start to the morning on Tuesday, it won’t warm up much. High temperatures are expected to remain near -30C, but winds will remain light as we languish under a strong surface high pressure system.
Wednesday
Temperatures may rise a bit from Tuesday evening into Wednesday morning as some cloud cover moves in. However, Wednesday will remain quite cold, with high temperatures still in the minus twenties. The wind will once again remain light, which about about the only good thing that can be said about the weather early this week.
Long Range
The long range outlook continues to look very ugly indeed. I have few positive things to say on this topic, so I’ll just leave it at that.
