... Sub-zero wind chills tonight through Friday morning...
... Very cold through Friday night...

Wind chills tonight through Friday morning will range from five
below to as low as 15 below due to the combination of west winds 5
to 10 mph and temperatures in the single digits to as low as 5
below.

High temperatures will only top off in the mid teens on Friday.

Slight moderation is expected for Saturday... with temperatures
from the mid 20s well inland... to the lower and mid 30s across
Long Island and coastal Connecticut.

Prolonged exposure to the cold and wind could lead to frostbite
and hypothermia. If you venture outdoors... make sure you wear a
hat and gloves.

The prolonged cold can also lead to additional health hazards such
as exposure to fumes from poorly ventilated emergency
generators... and property damage such as frozen and bursting
water pipes including those of fire sprinkler systems... and fires
from improperly used heaters. Be weather ready and visit the
National Weather Service web site at weather.Gov for winter
weather safety tips.

40.3°F Dense Fog

Fog has been relentless over the past 24 hours. Living on the immediate shore line doesn't help either, especially when you're the only place fogged out earlier today and just a mile further inland the sun in shining. Ugh.
