>> reporter: and you heard that woman talking about the many layers, the visitor from north carolina, the many layers she's wearing. i'm wearing a lot of layers to keep safe. three hats, eight layers on top, three on bottom. it's going to get much worse over the course of the rest of the night. >> negative 11 degrees fahrenheit with the windchill in boston. get inside right now. joining us is craig clemer, director of marketing at the omni mount washington resort. the base where the summit windchills are 103 below zero. these live images from the summit looks like the planet from "star wars." describe the conditions where you are at the base of the mountain. >> reporter: at the base of the mountain right now, we're about minus 23. the lobby is nice and warm. but outside there is a little wind going on. we were skiing today. our ski area, but we are really
"fox & friends"? >> i would. >> janice: not quite cold in the northeast. going to be cold over the next couple of days from the northern plains, dipping down towards the midwest. look at some of these wind chills, okay? below freezing by a lot. minus 27 is what it going to feel like in bismarck. minus 23 in duluth. look at monday. even colder than that the coldest air of the season arriving across the northern plains and that's going to dip into the central u.s. we're also going to see the potential for a lot of snow from the intermountain west across the plains into the midwest. and then we have an area of low pressure that is going to bring heavy rainfall across the gulf coast into florida. that's something we are going to be tracking over the next several days with fox weather. all right. do you love steve, ainsley and will? >> yes we do. >> oh my gosh it's brian today. brian will be so upset. brian, will, and ainsley. you know i love you, brian. i would never purposefully ignore you. >> brian: again. >> ainsley: very nice. thanks for coming in.
keeping snow clear. walking over to the departure boards here and arrival boards. maybe you see there is only two -- well there is three now. two flights from denver and one from o'hare canceled. beyond that nothing canceled yes. even though hundreds of cancellations all across the country. that's a positive. take a look what's coming. yeah, what you just showed, some of that cheyenne minus 23 i heard. that's headed our way. and we'll be here tomorrow. coming in later tonight, actually. so if you didn't get out today from a place in the upper midwest, chances are, you are not going to make it to new year's. you might not make it to christmas. there you go. again, not so bad. they got the dogs out, too. who let the dogs out? do you see that, chris? they got the dogs sniffing. they deploy them when they expect a lot of people. right now not a whole lot of people, guys. >> brian: thanks, jeff. people fly with dogs so you have dogs sniffing dogs. >> will: that's a good point. >> brian: thank you. you don't mean it's a good
aren't we? >> that's right, pamela. astronomical winter begins this week, and it is certainly going to feel like it for much of the country, especially over the next week. you're really going to start to see that cold air set in place across the northern plains before spreading elsewhere in the coming days. now, overnight tonight, we really start to sea that surge of cold air. by sunday morning, take a look at this, the feels-like temperature in bismarck minus 13, fargo, minus 23. it's actually going to get even colder than that in the coming days. take fargo, for example, the high temperature on sunday topping out at only 4 degrees. once we get to tuesday, that high temperature will likely only make it to minus 6, when you factor in the wind, that windchill is probably going to feel a lot more like say minus 25 to minus 30 in that early morning hour. but even though it's starting here, you're really going to see a lot of that cold air spread out across much of the eastern half of the country over the next five to seven days.
it. a big mass of cold air is set to push down from canada into the northern portion of the u.s. before spreading into much of the eastern half of the country in the coming days. sunday morning the feels like temperatures across the high plains are going to be bitter cold. minus 13 is what it will feel like in bismarck, minus 23 in fargo. but it's actually expected to get even colder in the coming days. take fargo, for example, the high temperature on sunday only 4 degrees. by the time we get to tuesday, that high temperature doesn't exceed minus 6 and when you factor in the wind, that windchill is more likely to be around the minus 25 range. and, again, these temperatures will continue not only for that area, but begin to spread across much of the country for the rest of the week. in total likely looking at nearly 80% of the u.s. population having temperatures at or below the freezing mark at some point in the next seven days. and while it starts in the northern tier, it will spread even to some southern cities.
how do voters see it, how do americans see it? this is the university of michigan consumer confidence index, 66 in april of 2022, going back since 1978, tied for the lowest, it was 66 in april of 1982, that was a good year for democrats in the house of representatives with the republican president. and i'll just note, if you don't believe that the economy is hurting the democrats and joe biden, look at the net approval rating, approval minus disapproval, joe biden at this point, minus 23 points. that is the worst on record since they started asking about economic job approval ratings back in 1978, with jimmy carter who, of course, ended up the economy and put it to bits. >> harry enten, thank you. "new day" continues right now.
