A number of schools across the Chicago area will be closed in the coming days while dangerously cold temperatures sweep across the region.
While the majority of public schools already have Monday off for Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, others have either canceled classes or shifted to e-learning because of the extreme cold.
With wind chills of up to 35 degrees below zero possible through mid-week, some schools have announced closures for Tuesday.
You can find the complete list of cancellations here.
A wind chill warning remains in effect for much of the Chicago area through Tuesday afternoon as some locations see wind chills dip as low as 40 degrees below zero. A wind chill advisory will also continue after that until Wednesday morning.
For those outside in the cold, wind chills can be dangerous, causing frostbite in as little as 10-to-30 minutes on exposed skin.
