Weather Gets Wacky at Western


The recent weather in Macomb has had many people fooled. The past couple days of warmth made many look ahead to spring with hope that it may have already arrived. Students walked around campus in light jackets or sweatshirts, while others even braved a pair of shorts. Many were unprepared for the weather that will be coming very soon.

The Quad Cities National Weather Service has now issued a winter weather advisory until nine A.M. Wednesday. Threats of a blizzard warning have been cancelled but threats of severe winter weather remain in effect. Temperatures will continue to drop throughout the day with windchills of almost twenty below this evening.


Warm weather has been put on the back burner for now. Temperatures are expected to remain in the thirties at least until early next week. As junior kinesiology major Lindsay Muehlbauer put it, "I can't wait until the weather stops changing and actually stays warm for good."
