Greater Cincinnati braces for freezing temperatures and chilling winds this week, with a hazardous weather outlook in effect.

They’ve issued a hazardous weather outlook that’ll stick around at least until Friday. With the cold and wind combined, we might see some dangerously low wind chill values.
On Sunday, expect partly sunny skies with a high of 34 degrees and a low of 25. There’s a slight chance of drizzle and snow early Monday morning, but it should be pretty quiet otherwise.
Monday is going to be even colder, with a high of just 27 and a low of 9. It’ll be dry and partly sunny, but don’t let that fool you; it’s still chilly out there.
Tuesday and Thursday mornings could see wind chill values drop to zero or even negative 10. Wednesday might be the coldest, with wind chills hitting negative 15. There’s also a slight chance of snow on Tuesday afternoon.
To help folks stay warm, the Greater Cincinnati Homeless Coalition is opening a warming shelter at Christ Church Cathedral on Sunday from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. They’re providing free bus service from the overnight winter shelter to the warming spot.
Hamilton County Emergency Management is sharing tips on how to avoid frostbite and hypothermia. They recommend dressing in layers, covering exposed skin, and limiting time outside.
If you or someone you know is affected by frostbite or hypothermia, it’s crucial to seek medical help right away. Warm up with dry blankets, and don’t use hot water or heat sources directly on frostbite.
So, stay warm out there, Cincinnati!
