FIRST ALERT FORECAST: ALERT NIGHT – Freeze Warning from 1 AM – 8 AM

DISCUSSION: An ALERT NIGHT has been declared for this evening due to a Freeze Warning across the Coulee Region. Some places will see overnight lows in the low to mid 20s with wind chill factors possibly reaching the upper teens. The following counties are affected; Winneshiek, Allamakee, Crawford, Richland, Fillmore, Houston, Vernon, Juneau, Adams, Winona & La Crosse.

After we get out of the Freeze Warning, we will see temperatures rebound back into the upper 50s – low 60s. The warming trend will continue as we head into Sunday & Monday. By Tuesday, we’ll go back into the low 70s. (Our average high for this time of year is 67°.) The caveat to that is that rain chances will increase ahead of a front that will push through Tuesday night going into Wednesday. For next weekend, we’ll stay in the mid – upper 50s.
