Part 3/5:

The wind chills present an alarming figure; temperatures feel well below zero in certain locales, with notable readings like 13 degrees below zero in Marshalltown and just below zero in Atlantic and Carroll. These frigid conditions underline the 25-degree drop in temperatures compared to just yesterday, making it acutely noticeable for anyone venturing outdoors.

Fortunately, as the evening rolls in, winds are anticipated to calm down significantly, reducing the chill factor, allowing residents to enjoy the rest of their evening outings without the discomfort of biting winds. As for the temperatures themselves, they are expected to drop initially before rising during the overnight hours past midnight—a surprising turn given the day’s earlier chill.
