It will be a breezy, chilly night in the North Country

The National Weather Service is warning people of brisk northwesterly winds tonight of 15-25 mph with gusts 30-40 mph, and single-digit wind chills in some areas.

A series of cold fronts moving through the area is setting the stage for the coldest temperatures of the season so far, with lows in the mid 20s tonight.

Wind chills will be in the single digits to teens in the mountains and the upper teens to mid 20s in the valleys. The strongest winds will be in higher elevations, the NWS says.

A lingering chance of showers tonight will yield to clear skies for a sunny day Thursday. Highs tomorrow are expected in the upper 30s with lows at night of around 30.

After a partly sunny day Friday, clouds are expected to move in again Friday night as another round of rain has a chance to take hold Friday night into Saturday.

Skies could clear for a partly sunny day Sunday with highs near 40.
