Wind Chill Advisory In Effect Tonight in the Berkshires. Below Zero Temps Overnight

Here we go again! After some spots in the Berkshire came close to 40 degrees yesterday, we are right back into the deep freezer tonight with the low on the overnight dropping down to -3 and the wind chill value as low as -14. Tomorrow we will reach 12 degrees in the Pittsfield and North Adams but the wind chill value will be -15 according to the National Weather Service. There won’t be any relief until Saturday with a high only in the teens.

It can’t be stressed enough the danger of exposed skin during the upcoming days and nights below freezing. Cover exposed skin and make sure your pets are not let outside. The cold will could have long-lasting negative health effects.
