"Dangerously cold air to arrive tonight with 
Wind Chill readings as low as 15 below. 
The frigid conditions will be dangerous to those venturing outside; 
prolonged exposure may cause frostbite.
A wind chill advisory means that very cold air and strong winds
will combine to generate low wind chills; this will result in
frost bite and lead to hypothermia if precautions are not taken.
If you must venture outdoors, make sure you wear a hat and gloves.
