Weak...come on...tough it a bit.

KXAN is now showing a 60% chance of snow for Austin on Thursday.

Do you think most of the models are still underestimating the precip, similar to the 2004 Christmas eve storm?
for southern and Central Saskatchewan Tuesday morning. At these extreme wind chill values frostbite on exposed skin may occur in less than 10 minutes. Wind chill values will moderate somewhat throughout the day, but will still remain cold..With values in the -30's expected Tuesday afternoon.

Here's a pic from my front yard. As you can see, all sleet.

Summary
Wind chill values in the -40 to -45 range tonight and Tuesday morning. This is a warning that extreme wind chill conditions are imminent or occurring in these regions. Monitor weather conditions..Listen for updated statements.
Details
A ridge of high pressure currently centered west of Saskatoon will drop southward into Montana overnight. Northerly winds ahead of the ridge will give wind chill values at times below -40 to parts of Southern Saskatchewan this evening before winds drop off as the ridge nears. However, the coldest and most sustained wind chill values are expected to develop on Tuesday morning. Southwest winds of 15-20 km/h will pick up early Tuesday morning as the ridge of high pressure moves into Montana. With temperatures dropping into the -30's over most of Saskatchewan overnight this will give wind chill values in the -40 to -45 range
Exposed skin can freeze in minutes when it's that cold.
And people in southwestern Saskatchewan have had to bare the freezing temperatures with no power. SaskPower says a 72,000-volt transmission line was out on Monday morning in the area between Maple Creek and Piapot. Crews were having trouble getting to the site as it became inaccessible after the heavy snow last week.
