An arctic front is serving Omaha a cold slice of winter.

The metropolitan area will begin tonight to see a not-so-pleasant combination of snowfall, high winds and low temperatures.

An accumulation of 1 to 2 inches is expected, according to the National Weather Service. The snow will end by daybreak Sunday and will be accompanied by a rapid drop in temperatures, to near zero by midnight.

Wind chills could dip to 20- or 25-below zero, said Brian Edwards, a meteorologist with AccuWeather, The World-Herald's private weather consultant.

3. I've lived in a few different states, and even a different country, but Raleigh NC was my favorite.

Would love to be there for those thunderstorms, and the 75F. (Hope the winds aren't strong enough to down any of those pine trees!!)

4. we lost most of our pines during Hurricane Fran in 1996.

Now THAT was frightening weather!

5. I heard. And I could see the aftermath in a way, when I hiked at Umstead.

That must have been terrifying. Glad you made it through!
