Wind Chill Advisory
Statement as of 3:48 PM CST on February 10, 2012

... Wind Chill Advisory in effect from midnight tonight to 8 am
CST Saturday...

The National Weather Service in Des Moines has issued a Wind
Chill Advisory... which is in effect from midnight tonight to 8 am
CST Saturday.

* Short term trends... cold temperatures already in place are
expected to slip further this evening. The far northwest along
with snow covered areas of west central Iowa will see
temperatures eventually dip to zero or below.

* Winds... a north to northwest wind at 2o to 30 mph will be common
this evening. The wind will diminish some overnight but should
remain in the 10 to 20 mph range.

* Impacts... wind chill temperatures will slip to near zero this
evening and is expected to fall to between -20 to -25 after midnight.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A Wind Chill Advisory means that very cold air and wind will
combine to generate low wind chills. This will result in frost
bite and lead to hypothermia if precautions are not taken. If
you must venture outdoors... make sure you wear a hat and gloves.
