A WIND CHILL ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 10 AM EST SATURDAY.

THE COLDEST WIND CHILL VALUES SHOULD BE MAINLY OVER THE HIGHER
ELEVATIONS.

A WIND CHILL ADVISORY IS ISSUED WHEN WINDS COMBINE WITH VERY COLD
TEMPERATURES TO CREATE DANGEROUS CONDITIONS FOR EXPOSED SKIN. THE

PRECAUTIONS ARE NOT TAKEN. THOSE PLANNING TO VENTURE OUTDOORS
SHOULD USE COMMON SENSE AND DRESS WARMLY... MAKING SURE THAT ALL
EXPOSED SKIN IS COVERED.
