"And now for some bad news. The lowest wind chills for Sunday night into Monday could dip between -30 to -40 below zero. If you have any outdoor plans New Years Eve or New Years Day, please be prepared for extremely dangerous cold temperatures."

In a word: Brrrrr!

That's the latest report from the National Weather Service out of Valley, Nebraska.

The high temperature for Sunday is expected to be -1, according to AccuWeather services. 

Actual air temperatures on Sunday night and Monday morning could drop to -20 degrees, with windchill hovering around -25 degrees.

The Dorchester forecast for New Year's Eve day and night says: "Clear and frigid; extreme cold can be dangerous for outdoor activities."

The high on Monday will be around 3 degrees, forecasters say.

Temperatures will not again hit the lower 30s until the weekend of January 6-7.

According to the long range forecast, the next true warm-up won't come until January 15, when temps could top 40 degrees.

The next chance of snow comes soon after, January 16-20.
