It’s going to get cold again as the National Weather Service has issued a wind chill advisory for most of central and southern Minnesota from Midnight tonight [Wednesday] through Friday at noon. Wind chills will be in the -25 to -35 range with a few areas hitting -40.

Frostbite is possible for exposed skin in 20-30 minutes when wind chills are in -25 to -35 temperatures and in 15 minutes when temperatures are -35 to -40 range. Winds will increase to 10 to 20 MPH and continue through Thursday.

According to SCSU Meteorology professor Bob Weisman, the cold air is a bit slower than forecast.
