Brick and Blustery!

 

Who let the gust out? Yesterday and today have held their own in the whipping-winds competition as gusts have been recorded above 40 mph for many Pennsylvanians, namely those in the Philadelphia metro region. In the early morning hours, a cold front plunged from Canada, bringing along a cold air mass and snow squalls for many across the northern tier of the state to start the morning.

For the rest of today, temperatures remain seasonable, but gusts can become bone chilling — especially without proper clothing. To deter the cold during windy conditions, focus on covering as much skin as possible, as the contact between wind and your skin creates the uncomfortable feeling we all detest. Once your skin is covered, ensure that the thickness of your clothing is proper for the temperatures you’re expecting to experience.

Tomorrow’s conditions appear to be quite similar to today’s: snow will be falling for those in the northern tier and the Laurel Highlands to start the day, with seasonable temperatures, but windy conditions, making your commute outdoors uncomfortable. Be cognizant of road conditions during your morning commute if snow is falling and bundle up!
