How low did it get?

Surge of arctic air has moved in place…how low did we get?

Below are the low temperatures of this morning. Expect tonight’s lows to be much lower than this. I will post tonight’s lows tomorrow just to illustrate how cold this air mass really is.

Lyndonville Vermont -19°F 2°F -21°F
Albany New York 5°F 13°F -9°F

SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND SNOW…

Snow should be winding down over the next few hours across the region. A general 1-2″ of snow has fallen across this region. Expect temperatures to plummet in the wake of this system. Combine frigid temperatures with cold winds from the north and you have one cold day ahead of you.

THE CHILL…

Dangerously cold air is moving down from Canada across New England and the Northeast. It is crucial that you dress appropriately as temperatures drop into the single digits and below zero. Dress in layers, cover all exposed skin, and limit your time outdoors. If you don’t have to travel then don’t. Please check up on the homeless and the elderly as they are most at risk from the cold. I have enclosed links to various state government homeless directories across the Northeast.
