YSK: The National Weather Service is no longer using terms such as “Wind Chill Warning” and “Wind Chill Advisory” to describe dangerous cold conditions.
Why YSK: Beginning October 1, 2024, the NWS started using the terms Cold Weather Advisory, an Extreme Cold Watch, or an Extreme Cold Warning because the new language will allow the NWS to communicate that cold is dangerous with or without wind.
