Record-Breaking Cold Temperatures Will Hit Most of the Country Next Week
Baby, it's about to be very cold outside. Although a large part of the country is currently experiencing a drop in temperatures thanks to a southward moving jet stream, next week will be even colder, according to The Weather Channel. In fact, the frigid temperatures are expected to be record-breaking for many areas.
Early next week, a cold front will hit the Midwest and East coast, and will soon be followed by another front that will sweep through the same area, as well as the Southern Plains and Deep South. These systems will not only bring some of the chilliest temperatures of the season, but also some of the lowest temperatures ever recorded for November. The National Weather Service predicts a whopping 190 temperature records could be broken from Monday, November 11, to Wednesday, November 13.
On Monday, residents in the Northern Plains and upper Midwest will see highs in the teens, and those in the Central Plains and mid-Mississippi Valley will see just slightly warmer temperatures in the 20s. If you think that's cold, the peak of this frigid front will actually be on Tuesday. The Northeast will have lows in the teens, parts of the South and Central plains will experience lows in the single digits, and the Northern Plains will see single-digit below zero temperatures. It will even be quite cold in the Deep South with lows in the 20s and 30s from Tuesday into Thursday. The Weather Channel notes these cold temperatures are usually experienced in January--not November.
And if you live in the Great Lakes region, you might also experience some lake-effect snow next week. However, the majority of the country will be dry, just extremely cold. (However, both the Farmers' Almanac and The Old Farmer's Almanac predict there will be several major storms this winter, so there will be plenty of snow to go around.) With such chilling temperatures, we advise you get any outdoor tasks, such as putting up Christmas decorations, done this weekend. You definitely do not want to be spending time outside next week.

Record cold will hit the most of the country next week as record warmth hits Alaska, Yukon and British Columbia, Canada. This will dislodge the cold air onto the eastern 2/3rds of the continent. Many states will see record lows and record low highs. Here in Chicago, will be about 25 degrees below average, with highs in the 20s by Monday and Tuesday. This it too early for this shit.

R2, people who live where the ground freezes in November and snow is a near-certainty prior to December have to put up their outdoor decorations before that happens. It's a matter of safety. Ladders and roofs and snow are dangerous combinations. Lawn ornaments have to be staked down so December gales don't blow them all over the neighborhood, meaning they have to be set in place before the ground freezes.
I used to do a giant, ebulliently tacky Christmas display. After the first time on the roof after the snow had accumulated, I wised up and began setting it up in early November (though I didn't turn it on until the first weekend in December).
