Dangerous Cold to Grip Detroit

A lengthy stretch of dangerous cold will endanger residents in Detroit through Tuesday.
After an Alberta Clipper brought more snow to Detroit on Sunday and added to the city's already snowiest ever January total, additional snow showers will move through Sunday night.
There is concern for a heavier snow squall to also occur, mainly after midnight EST.
That snow squall could drop a fresh coating to an inch and dramatically reduce visibility. Howling winds will worsen the situation for motorists by blowing and drift snow that has already fallen.

The winds will also usher in one of winter's coldest air masses. Temperatures will drop to around 10 F by daybreak Monday, then continue to slowly fall through the single digits as the day progresses.
A record-breaking low of 10 below zero is expected Monday night with temperatures only recovering to the lower single digits on Tuesday.

As the biting winds continue, AccuWeather.com RealFeel® temperatures will dangerously drop under 10 below zero late Sunday night with little recovery expected on Monday.
Monday night, RealFeel temperatures will bottom out at near 35 below zero.
Such cold is extremely dangerous, and residents who fail to properly bundle up will be highly susceptible to experiencing frostbite or hypothermia.
