Dangerous Cold This Weekend

Wind Threat This Weekend

Winter Power Outages

Dangerous cold is expected again this weekend along with gusty winds resulting in wind chills below 5 degrees likely and subzero wind chills possible in some locations. Frostbite can occur quickly and hypothermia is likely with prolonged exposure to these temperatures. Damage to exposed pipes and water main breaks will be likely. Continued power outages in some areas will continue to make the cold even more dangerous and winds may complicate any remaining restoration efforts.

There is a threat for strong winds as arctic air surges into the area Friday night through Saturday. Aside from creating dangerous wind chill readings, these winds could become strong enough to damage trees, especially those already weakened or damaged by the recent ice storm. This could also complicate any remaining power restoration efforts. As we get closer to the weekend and forecast confidence increases, a wind advisory may become necessary.
