Brutal cold grips Philly region as wind chills raise frostbite risk
Dangerous cold is tightening its grip on the Philadelphia region, with biting wind chills creating a serious frostbite risk in minutes. Meteorologists say snow squalls and gusty winds are helping drive temperatures down into the teens and 20s, with wind gusts reaching 40 to 50 mph in some spots. Drivers are also being warned about slick, “icy-dicey” road conditions across parts of the area. Philadelphia remains under a Code Blue, with additional shelter resources available for anyone who needs a warm place to stay. Doctors caution that frostbite can develop in as little as 20 minutes in these conditions, and hypothermia remains a concern — especially for young children and older adults.
