ALERTS: Cold weather advisory in effect Friday from 12 a.m. until 10 a.m.

Bundling up is non-negotiable for the next couple of days. Frigid air and sub-zero wind chills are set to stick around through at least Friday night, and potentially into Saturday as well. To make it official, a cold weather advisory is in effect from midnight until 10 a.m. Friday. There’s a solid chance we’ll see additional advisories issued for Friday night as the deep freeze continues.

Looking ahead to Sunday, we’re keeping a close eye on a strong offshore storm system. While the storm is powerful, the potential for significant accumulating snow is actually on the decline for most of the region as the system tracks further out to sea.

Even if the snow misses your neighborhood, you’ll definitely feel the storm's presence. Sunday into Sunday night brings the threat of strong winds, particularly near the coast. These winds, combined with the offshore system, could lead to minor coastal flooding and shoreline impacts. Essentially, it’s going to be a raw, blustery end to the weekend, so you might want to double-check those coastal moorings and keep the heavy coat handy.
