An all-too-familiar extreme cold has settled in Southern Manitoba, prompting a warning from Environment Canada.
Wind chill values in the -40 to -50 range can be expected into Friday as bitterly cold northerly winds ahead of a ridge of high pressure continue to affect Southern Manitoba.
However, winds should diminish by Saturday as the ridge moves over the area, but below-normal temperatures are expected to persist.
Environment Canada reminds residents to dress in warm layers, noting the outer layer should be wind resistant.
