Frigid Temps
January 21, 2013
.ARCTIC AIR WILL REMAIN ENTRENCHED ACROSS THE REGION. NORTHWEST
WINDS OF 5 TO 15 MPH WILL COMBINE WITH THE COLD TEMPERATURES TO
PRODUCE WIND CHILLS FROM 35 TO 45 BELOW ZERO. CONDITIONS WILL
SLOWLY IMPROVE TODAY BUT REMAIN COLD.
THE COMBINATION OF VERY COLD AIR AND
WINDS WILL CREATE DANGEROUSLY LOW WIND CHILL VALUES. THIS WILL
RESULT IN FROST BITE AND LEAD TO HYPOTHERMIA OR DEATH IF
PRECAUTIONS ARE NOT TAKEN.
