Millions across the Northeast will continue enduring a brief, yet life-threatening, cold spell this weekend
The wind chill warnings and advisories encompassing all of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Connecticut are likely to continue through Saturday morning. Nearly all of the state of New York and northern counties in Pennsylvania are also threatened by plunging temperatures.
On Friday night, a new national record for lowest wind chill temperature was likely recorded at the tallest peak in the Northeast, Mount Washington in New Hampshire, with a reported wind chill of minus 108 degrees Fahrenheit – thanks to a temperature of minus 46 and wind gusts of 127 mph. Wind chill records are not historically tracked as closely as temperature records, but the mark would beat other lows set. Freezing temperatures this week have not only affected the Northeast.
