Iowa Schools Have 2-Hour Late Start Due To Extreme Cold
It is very cold out there across Eastern Iowa. It's so cold that an Extreme Cold Warning has been issued for several counties across the area, especially north of Highway 30. The warning does extend into some counties along I-80, just outside of the Quad Cities metro area.
Just because some counties aren't under that warning doesn't mean it's also not cold out there. But that warning is plenty of a reason to delay the opening of school on Tuesday morning. The counties not under that warning are under a Cold Weather Advisory.
Wind chills are down to -35° which is too cold for kids to walk to school. Those in the Cold Weather Advisory are also seeing wind chills into the -20s.
This won't be our only cold day. We'll see this arctic blast continue will into Thursday with highs in the single digits for today and Wednesday. Thursday will see highs back into the teens.
