The Tristate probably won't ring in the new year with snow, but there will be plenty of bone-chilling weather this week.

        Sunday's high peaked at 24 degrees, but with the wind chill, it felt closer to 10 outside.

        Lows overnight were expected to drop to 10, but with winds at 10 miles per hour, the temperature was expected to hit four degrees below zero.

        The frigid conditions didn't dampen the spirits of diehard Bengals fans, many of whom trekked to Paul Brown Stadium on Sunday in long johns, parkas, scarves and mittens to watch the Bengals beat the Pittsburgh Steelers.

        Today is expected to be sunny but cold, with a high of 26.

        The normal high for Dec. 30 is 38 degrees with a low of 21.

        When wind chills fall below freezing for an extended period and local shelters fill up, the Cincinnati Health Department will declare a cold weather emergency. That allows community centers and other buildings to house homeless people overflowing from shelters.

        But because the Drop-Inn Center in Over-the-Rhine — the only shelter in Cincinnati that accepts walk-ins — didn't fill to its 300-person capacity Saturday night, officials held off on declaring a cold weather emergency.
