Wind chill values are expected to be from -10 degrees to -20 degrees. tonight and Monday morning. Remember to limit your time outdoors with this extreme cold. Cover any exposed skin to prevent frostbite and hypothermia.
The extreme cold will continue tonight into Monday morning as the arctic air stays put across the region. Prepare for another morning of temperatures -10 to -20 degrees below zero for areas north of Westchester and Rockland counties, even though temperatures may not reach the criteria for the advisory in Westchester and Rockland counties. It will still be a few degrees below zero overnight and in the morning. Plan to keep the coats, layers, and cover any exposed skin from the cold.
By Tuesday and Wednesday, we have a shot to finally get just near the freezing point, which is 32 degrees for White Plains and Yonkers. This minor relief, however, will be short-lived. By the weekend, temperatures will once more plummet into the 20s and teens following another cold front.
Ahead of the cold front, there is a weather system we are keeping an eye on that could bring some light snow to the region Friday evening into early Saturday morning. The snow chance has increased slightly, but still remains rather low. At this time, we are not expecting a major snow event to end the week. Temperatures are expected to be near or below freezing and unseasonably cold through next week.
