Residents across Minnesota are shivering again today.
Temperatures plunged well below zero this morning, with wind chill readings hitting 50 degrees below zero across much of the region.
In the Twin Cities, temperatures dipped to minus 14 degrees with a wind chill of minus 45. High temperatures expected to reach -3 degrees. The National Weather Service issued a wind chill warning that was supposed to expire at noon. But the blustery conditions haven't subsided.

Weather officials warn that frost bite can set in in under 10 minutes when it is this cold.
