Fall=Wind

Today we get to enjoy what fall is known for across much of the country; wind. Fall is typically the windiest season of the year and it will really live up to its name today with wind advisories in effect for the James River Valley and points westward. Also, with the temperatures expected to be mainly in the 30's this afternoon, its going to feel even colder. Just look at the wind chill chart below. The temperature is at the top and the wind is on the left. So, if you combine the two like we will today, you get the wind chill which is what it feels like outside against your skin. So with temperatures in the 30's today and sustained winds anywhere from 20-40 mph, wind chills will be in the teens and twenties. So bundle up because it will feel like winter is showing its face a little early this year.So is there any good news? Well, it wont last long as Sunday we are expecting highs back into the 40's and 50's with calm winds and partly cloudy skies.
