More brutal winter weather is coming our way in the next few days or so and it's not going to be pretty.  Snow will be falling and so will the temperature.  Insane cold is in our forecast as the vaunted polar vortex makes it way through the Capital Region this week.

According to a report from the Times Union, snow totals Tuesday into Wednesday will be anywhere from the 5-10 inches.  Early Wednesday evening and into the overnight, area temps will plummet to bone-chilling lows.

As temps drop below zero on Wednesday evening, winds will begin to pick up causing sub-zero temperatures to feel as frigid as minus 25 by Thursday morning.
