...WIND CHILL ADVISORY IN EFFECT FROM 3 AM TO 10 AM CST TUESDAY...

* EVENT...Wind chill factors falling to as low as 10 to 15
degrees. Isolated locations could see wind chills briefly in the
single digits

* TIMING...between 3 AM and 9 AM Monday morning, with the lowest
wind chills occuring between 4 and 8 AM.

* IMPACT...A wind chill advisory signals significantly lower wind
chill values than are typically seen in Southeast Texas. People
who spend time outdoors for extended periods with exposed skin 
can become vulnerable to frostbite. Additionally, the cold 
temperatures create a threat for hypothermia in those who are 
not dressed warmly enough to keep their core temperature at a 
safe level.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

A Wind Chill Advisory means that very cold air and strong winds
will combine to generate low wind chills. This will result in
frost bite and lead to hypothermia if precautions are not taken. 
If you must venture outdoors...make sure you wear a hat and
gloves.
