NEW: An "extreme cold watch" has been issued by the National Weather Service from Saturday at 6 p.m. through Sunday at 1 p.m. This can convert to an "extreme cold warning" or "cold weather advisory" as we get closer. Either way, the forecast for wind chills 10 to 20 degrees below zero remains unchanged through the weekend.

REST OF TODAY: Cold weather continues with temperatures still below average. Mostly sunny skies and a light wind for today makes it less harsh.

Changes arrive Friday night into Saturday with dangerous cold weather conditions. Lows in the single digits, plus wind gusts near 45 mph will make it feel like 10 to 20 degrees below zero.

After around 10 p.m. Friday, scattered light snow develops. Snow may be moderate at times with a gusty wind developing through Saturday morning. Visibility can be reduced with icy travel on Saturday. Snow totals will range from a coating to two inches. There is a possibility that the East End may see 2 to 4 inches- something the News 12 Storm Watch team is tracking.
