Subzero cold was observed near the Canadian border in northern Michigan, northern New York and northern Maine Tuesday morning and daily record lows were set in parts of the Northeast Wednesday morning.

The cold will become more expansive late this week due to yet another southward dip in the jet stream which will allow more arctic air to push south from Canada, and may persist in some form well into next week before any easing of the pattern takes place.

Below are more details on the record cold to start this week and then a look at the next round of arctic air arriving late in the week.
