Strong arctic air is in the process of pushing into the Midwest causing very dangerous conditions. The coldest temperatures will be seen late Friday night into early Saturday morning with sub zero temperatures that could exceed -20 degrees in some areas. On top of the extreme cold temperatures, there will be strong gusty winds in the area that can result in wind chills to drop to 50 degrees below zero! Minneapolis and Milwaukee will potentially see wind chill values dip below -20 degrees. At those levels, frostbite of exposed skin can occur in as little as ten minutes, so limit your time outdoors this Valentines Day Weekend.

A strong push of dangerously cold arctic air will move into New England starting late Friday, with the coldest air arriving for the day Saturday and Saturday night. The most brutal conditions will occur Saturday evening, with temperatures expected to be subzero in most locations. New York City, which has not dropped below zero since January 1994, will be very close to zero, while Boston, Hartford and Buffalo are expected to see the mercury plummet below zero degrees. Adding to the danger will be gusty winds Saturday, which will knock the wind chills down to as much as 50 degrees below zero in interior New England and the higher elevations. Most major cities can expect wind chills between zero and -30 degrees. At those levels, frostbite of exposed skin can occur in as little as ten minutes, so limit your time outdoors this Valentines Day Weekend.
