Our Governor has issued a state of emergency for the state because of the dangerous wind chills and temperatures for tomorrow.  I really don’t know what that will entail,  but at any rate, no one should be out tomorrow that doesn’t have to be.  I have heard that wind chills could be as low as -40°F with highs only around zero.   More snow is in our forecast for today with NOAA saying another 3 inches possible for tonight.  I think we have enough already.  A wind chill warning is in effect from 6 PM tonight until 11 AM on Thursday.,

Our 10:15 AM temp is 15°F (-9°C) , the humidity is 81% and winds are from the SSW at 8 mph.  We have cloudy skies and a moderate snow shower at this time.  The pressure is 29.82 in (1009.8 mb) and rising.  The dew point is 10°F (-12°C), and the wind chill is 5°F (-15°C).  Averages for this date are 17°F / 14°F.  Yesterday’s high was 22°F and the overnight low was 10°F (-12°C).  Sunrise was at 7:54 AM and sunset will be at 5:45 PM.
