Morning:
Frigid and cold start, with lows around -5°F to 10°F (or possibly as low as -19°F in some model indications, though typical around single digits above zero). Sunny skies, light winds, and high wind chills making it feel even colder. Bundle up heavily—wind chills could make it dangerous without proper protection. Frostbite is a real possibility with feel like temps well below zero.

Overall for Jan 31: Sunny, bitterly cold day with no significant precipitation expected (though some longer-range or model-based sites mention low risks of light snow or flurries in broader context, current short-term views are dry).
If you are outdoors dress for frostbite prevention – if you are driving, pack a “go” pack with a blanket, hand warmers, and other safety equipment for all in your car should you break down – AAA and other emergency response help may be delayed to the large number of calls.
It’s a “D” day!
