Dangerous Deep Cold: Pelham's Weekend Weather

PELHAM, NY — As Hudson Valley residents dig out Friday, they will be dealing with dangerously cold wind chill temperatures, the National Weather Service says. A wind chill advisory is in effect until 10 a.m. Saturday.

Cold wind chills will cause frostbite in as little as 30 minutes to exposed skin. Make sure to wear a hat and gloves if you need to be outside.

The NWS's wind chill advisory is in effect until 10 a.m. Saturday.

Wind gusts around 45 mph will result in areas of blowing and drifting snow, and may lead to minor property damage and isolated power outages.

The high temperature on Friday will barely make it into the low teens. Throw in wind gusts up to 45 mph and it's a serious situation. Wind chill temperatures will be below zero all day Friday and could drop all the way to 16 below Friday night into early Saturday. Saturday will be colder, Sunday will be a little warmer but still in the teens.

And then it'll feel like sweater weather on Monday when temps jump to the mid-30s. But there's a chance of sleet and snow, so ... no.

As far as the snow goes, it had all but ended by sunset Thursday. The NWS has updated its unofficial snow totals from towns in the Hudson Valley: the most was 15.5 inches in Harrison.
