Wind Chill Advisory/Hazardous Weather Outlook

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

A WIND CHILL ADVISORY IS ISSUED WHEN THE WIND CHILL INDEX IS
LIKELY TO REACH -15 TO -24 DEGREES FOR AT LEAST 3 HOURS.

FROSTBITE CAN DEVELOP IN JUST 30 MINUTES WITH A WIND CHILL INDEX
OF -20. IF YOU ARE HEADING OUTDOORS...DRESS IN LAYERS AND WEAR A
HAT AND GLOVES.


Frostbite is no joke! I have frostbite scars on my right ankle and leg that were acquired in 1990.

I'm wearing 3-layers on top, a baselayer, a thermal layer and a sweater, I have a pashmina and a wool hat and cashmere lined leather driving gloves in addition to a jacket that is good to -20F... but it's the kind of cold where I wish I had worn long-johns (and nobody ever really wishes to wear long-johns ) because my legs from the bottom of my knickers to the tops of my socks are FREEEEEEEEZING beneath my lined wool trousers during my walk to/from the car.
