But wait, there’s more! The wind will be coming in hot, or should I say, cold, at a northwest speed of 30 km/h, gusting to 50 km/h. Who needs a treadmill when you can run outside and feel like you’re in a hurricane? The high will be zero, which means you’ll need to bundle up like a burrito to stay warm. Don’t forget about the wind chill, folks! It’s going to be a frosty minus 6 in the morning and a frigid minus 11 in the afternoon. Yikes!
