Cleveland, OH – An Arctic cold front will bring dangerous wind chills as low as -10°F to Michigan, Ohio, and Pennsylvania this weekend. Residents across the Great Lakes region should prepare for frigid conditions as the winter solstice ushers in the coldest temperatures of the season.
According to the National Weather Service (NWS), the Arctic airmass will spread across the region starting Friday night, intensifying into Saturday. Cities like Detroit, Cleveland, and Pittsburgh will feel wind chills plunging below zero, creating hazardous conditions for those outdoors.
Officials urge residents to wear layers, cover exposed skin, and limit outdoor activities to avoid frostbite or hypothermia. Drivers are also cautioned to prepare for icy roads and reduced visibility in some areas.
The frigid temperatures are expected to persist through the weekend, with the cold front also affecting parts of the Northeast and Southeast. However, the Great Lakes region will feel the brunt of the Arctic blast, with some areas facing subzero wind chills for extended periods.
