Grimace Posted January 24, 2013 Report Posted January 24, 2013 This was our warning this morning in Timmins where I am currently working. It is a little balmier here than out your way but it is still a touch cool for my liking. Alerts in effect for Timmins, ON Wind Chill WarningIssued at 5:08 AM EST Thursday 24 January 2013 SUMMARYCold wind chill values of minus 40 to minus 50 this morning. A bitterly cold Arctic airmass has settled over Ontario. Temperatures of minus 30 to minus 35 degrees combined with winds of 15 to 20 km/h will result in extreme wind chill values of minus 40 to minus 50 this morning. Conditions will improve later today as winds diminish and temperatures rise with daytime heating. Extreme caution is advised if outdoors. Frostbite and hypothermia can occur within minutes if adequate precautions are not taken when outdoors.
DRIFTER_016 Posted January 24, 2013 Report Posted January 24, 2013 Welcome to my world!!!!! It's finally warming up above -30 after 3 weeks of -30 to mid -40's.
TJQ Posted January 24, 2013 Report Posted January 24, 2013 Ya first real cold snap we've had like this in a few years, we've been spoiled. My dad use to tell me it was -60 when he walked to the one room unheated school uphill with only one boot. ahh the good ole days. So were in better shape than that,,, they cancelled the buses here for the second day in a row, with exams supposed to be starting tomorrow.
TJQ Posted January 24, 2013 Report Posted January 24, 2013 Looks like its supposed to break to normal temps tomorrow afternoon here.
