The wind has picked up, with wind gusts in Philadelphia up to 30 mph. Late tonight and early tomorrow morning, with temperatures dropping into the 20s, wind chills across the region will plummet into the teens and single digits.
Tuesday morning will feel extremely cold, much like a morning in January, not early March.
By Tuesday afternoon, wind chills will make it feel closer to the mid 20s. A cold day, to be sure. Winter wardrobe required.
Temperatures moderate after Tuesday, bringing a pleasant stretch to the region.
