Dangerous Wind Chills Through Thursday Morning

Dangerously cold wind chills were experienced for many Wednesday morning as the wind chill temperature dropped as low as -56 degrees in some spots.  While the wind won't be quite as strong as Wednesday night, actual air temperatures will be colder keeping wind chills as low as -45 to -47 degrees by Thursday morning.

Wind Chill Warnings remain in effect for the entire Stateline through Noon Thursday.  Remember that when wind chills are this cold, frostbite can occur within as little as five minutes.  If you must go out tomorrow morning make sure you cover up any exposed skin and limit your time outdoors.  While wind chills will gradually improve Thursday afternoon and be more typical of what we're used to during the winter months, it'll still feel cold.  The worst time to be outdoors will be through mid-morning Thursday.
