Peekskill Warned Of Frigid Wind Chills Blowing Through Region

WESTCHESTER COUNTY, N.Y. -- Frigid wind chills will sweep across Westchester County from late Thursday and into Friday morning, the National Weather Service warned in a special weather statement.

Twenty to 30 mph westerly winds with gusts of up to 40 to 45 mph on Thursday evening will gradually weaken after midnight but not before ushering in a frigid air mass.

Temperatures will fall into the single digits by Friday morning.

The low temperatures combined with the strong winds will bring wind chills of -5 to -10 from late Thursday into early Friday.

There is a chance of snow showers Saturday and the potential exists for a major winter storm from Sunday evening into Monday evening.

While it is too early to predict the storm’s impact, accumulations could be 8 inches or more.
