This happened about 1 oclock in the morning. We can take you to that video shortly after it happened. Were talking about two separate events a water main break also a power outage. About 30 units here in this apartment complex are without power and have been without power since a little bit after 1 oclock just the first hour into 2018. We are in single digit wind chills right now, a miserable scene for the people that live here, probably over a hundred people if you figure at least two or three people live in each home. The good news, though, i spoke to a manager who works here at this apartment complex, he told me that most of the people have evacuated, have left this area, gone with family, friends, so its not like many people are sitting inside these apartments without power right now. But being in the single digit wind chill its very difficult. Peco crews are here. They have been working here for several hours hoping to restore the power to this apartment complex behind me.

The movie the last jedi just dethroned at the 2016 box office. Katie. Rahel even though its very early in the week we still want to give you an idea of what the upcoming week is going to look like. We are likely to be stuck in the teens or the 20s at best. At least well get some sunshine. Right now thats the call anyway. But we do have another opportunity for show in the sevenday and well talk much more about that scenario coming up. Katie is back. Still cold out there. Still cold. This is where we thought maybe we would be bottoming out. Looks like theres a few days down the road where the cold gets so reinforced it might be colder than it is now. I dont even know what that is. I know. At this point its like you cant even wrap your head around. Wait until i show you some of the feelslike values were finding across the northern high planes and parts of canada. Its just ridiculous how cold it is but looking live right now at ocean city, i was interested in showing you this camera because are there still yeah, there are still folks wandering around on the boardwalk which i thought was interesting. It just goes to show, you know, the cold is for some people they love it to be out in it no matter how harsh it is and certainly if you are adequately prepared and adequately bundled up you can in fact handle this but i could tell in both davids as well as alycias live reports their lips were starting to get numb just over the span of the minute that they were talking to us live on the air so its that kind of cold that all of a sudden you start to lose sense of your own body because its just so harsh. But lets move over, talk about a little bit in terms of statistic information when it comes to january. This is climatologically speaking the coldest month we get all year long. We would normally average out to a high of 40. Doesnt that sound like the most balmy temperature that weve ever heard of right now. I mean, its crazy that were wishing for it just to climb above freezing at this point but thats where we normally will average out. Its the second snowiest month on average february is the first and january 15th to 20th are typically your coldest days of the year when were bottoming out with that average high. So, maybe thats something to look ahead to keep in mind in mind it all boils down to a climate trend and if we are going to have an above average air mass come through, we may not see the coldest days come 15th to 20th this month. They might even be happening over the span of the next seven but the feelslike values right now have at least in most spots since gone into positive territory. Everybody was feeling like it was below zero over the course of the early morning. The wind chill advisory has gone out of effect but this is still pretty harsh. Still only feels like its four at the airport, one in atlantic city, five at wildwood and mount pocono course takes the cake. Difficult to grasp cold, this is it. It feels like its 37 below zero mooseonee i mean, you lose colors on the map. Its so cold. So, again, really, really brutal especially if you have flight plans, youre headed out that way for whatever reason. Theres a really charge section of the United States thats still sitting in a wind chill advisory or warning right now basically to the center of the country but theres no major storm moving through right now. I had mentioned earlier in the show there will eventually be a new storm system that develops and that is going to play a little bit of just back and forth into the center of the atlantic potentially bringing us snow in the days ahead. Right now theres nothing more than a little lake enhancement going on down wind of some of those great lake regions. Heres a look at the storm. Were taking you all the way to thursday. As it gets early as wednesday night though we could start to see the storm system ushering in the potential of some snow. This is not a guarantee. This is a model run. Thats important to note but its one of the models that brings snow in for our area in the days ahead. Wednesday night into thursday. That would be a very, very powerful noreaster storm system. The models continue to differ at least a little bit on the exact track. The general idea is that it is going to go northeast but even a matter of a couple miles could really make or totally bust our forecast. So its going to be something that needs to be monitored. Stick with us as far as im concerned but behind all of this the frigid air returns on friday and youll see that reflected in our sevenday. Quick check on your travel forecast. This is the last day were doing it through the holidays. If youll be taking a flight the northeast looks good. Its just freezing cold and its so cold youre only up to the freezing mark in atlanta and even dallas doesnt hit freezing. Were down only in Single Digits up in minneapolis chicago, lots of sunshine though at least so flight plans should be okay today. The warmest spot at least of all of throws goes to sky harbor the desert where july to find temperatures in the 70s. Here locally you need to warm up your car. Youll see sunshine for the next couple days until that next storm system comes along and quickly checking for the rest of today, the high 19. Later on tonight, well drop it down to 12, clear but very cold. And then again we begin to rebound but dont get too used to that. Come friday and saturday, especially, were right back where we started. And look at that, it will probably even be a few degrees colder than were calling for today. Thanks katie. I know, its tough.

We wont hit the freezing mark even by wednesday but we at least come close to it. So its not as harsh for the entire forecast. We are going to see this just get reinforced again and we again are looking at the possibility, its still a chance that we see some snow wednesday night into thursday morning from a very large very potent storm which thankfully it would bring only a glancing blow even at the worst Case Scenario so just let that sink in.
