Thankfully, Westchester County should be spared from the worst of it, according to AccuWeather.

The arctic blast is expected to dip into the northern plains and Great Lakes regions beginning Sunday, and last until Friday. Some areas of the country could see temperatures dip into the single digits, AccuWeather reported.
