Many kids across America will need to add an extra layer to their costumes this year as a Halloween arctic blast will send temperatures plummeting, with nearly 250 million experiencing below-average temperatures. 

‘Manitoba Mauler’ could send snow to Chicago, Minneapolis

Chicago, Minneapolis and Milwaukee could all see their first measurable snow of the season courtesy of a fast-moving storm system known as a "Manitoba Mauler."

And while it might sound like a horror film, a Manitoba Mauler is actually a clipper system that forms in Manitoba, Canada – similar to an Alberta Clipper but originates in a different Canadian province.

Major accumulations from the system across the Upper Midwest, Great Lakes and interior Northeast aren't expected, but Winter Weather Advisories are in effect for northern portions of Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan

The forecast snow totals through Wednesday, Nov. 1, 2023.
