Stay warm, members and friends! And for our overseas pals, what type of weather are you enjoying?EXTREME COLD WARNING IN EFFECT FOR NEARLY THE ENTIRE PROVINCE OF MANITOBA...
—A cold, arctic airmass is spreading southward bringing extreme wind chill values with it.—
As cloud clears behind a strong cold front this evening, temperatures will drop rapidly and northerly winds will increase with gusts up to 60 km/h possible. These plunging temperatures and gusty winds will give wind chill values of -40 to -45 overnight and into Wednesday morning.
These extreme cold values will moderate early Wednesday afternoon.
Extreme cold puts everyone at risk.
Watch for cold related symptoms: shortness of breath, chest pain, muscle pain and weakness, numbness and colour change in fingers and toes.
Cover up. Frostbite can develop within minutes on exposed skin, especially with wind chill.
If it's too cold for you to stay outside, it's too cold for your pet to stay outside.
For more information on cold and your health, visit Manitoba Health at www.gov.mb.ca/health/publichealth/environmentalhealth/cold.html or call Health Links - Info Santé at 204-788-8200 or toll-free at 1-888-315-9257.
Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada. To report severe weather, send an email to MBstorm@canada.ca or tweet reports using #MBStorm.
