ORANGE WARNING - COLD

Impact Level: High

Forecast Confidence: High


A multi-day episode of very cold wind chills is expected. Wind chill values in the -45 to -49 range are expected again tonight in parts of Northern Manitoba. Wind chill values will moderate on Sunday as somewhat milder air moves into the area. Extreme cold puts everyone at risk. Dress warmly. Dress in layers that you can remove if you get too warm. The outer layer should be wind resistant. Cover up. Frostbite can develop within minutes on exposed skin, especially with wind chill. Keep emergency supplies in your vehicle such as extra blankets and jumper cables. If it’s too cold for you to stay outside, it’s too cold for your pet to stay outside. Outdoor workers should take regularly scheduled breaks to warm up. For more information on cold and your health, visit Manitoba Health at gov.mb.ca/health/publichealth/environmentalhealth/cold.html or call Health Links - Info Santé at 204-788-8200 or toll-free at 1-888-315-9257. Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada. To report severe weather, send an email to MBstorm@ec.gc.ca, call 1-800-239-0484 or post reports on X using #MBStorm.
