Today's forecast high of 8 degrees is about as warm as it's going to get until the weekend. The good news is, though, that the overnight low of -2 is also the coldest it's going to get over the next week.

Scattered snow showers are expected throughout the day with more snow forecast throughout the week.

Wednesday's high is forecast as 8 degrees again with an overnight low of 4. Thursday's temperatures are 11 for the high and 1 for the low. Friday it warms up a bit with 18 for the high and 14 for the low.

The real issue in the forecast is the wind chill advisory from the National Weather Service. Tonight's overnight low of -2 will be met with winds of 5 to 15 mph, resulting in wind chills of -15 to -24 degrees. That will likely lead to some school cancellations in East Niagara Wednesday morning.
