Wind chills are forecast to reach into the single digits and teens Monday, prompting weather officials to advise residents to bundle up. The cold air is expected to persist throughout the day, making conditions feel significantly colder than the actual temperature.
Officials recommend dressing in layers and covering exposed skin to prevent frostbite and hypothermia. The cold snap is part of a broader cold front moving through the area, according to the National Weather Service.
Residents are urged to stay updated on weather alerts and take necessary precautions to stay safe during the cold weather.
