Southern Manitoba remains in a deep freeze Wednesday as arctic air pushes across the province. The good news is that some relief is on the way soon. 

From Environment Canada:

A period of very cold wind chills is expected. The coldest wind chill values will be between minus 40 and minus 45.

Extreme wind chills are occurring this morning.

Conditions will improve this afternoon as relatively warmer air begins to move into the southern prairies.

Extreme cold puts everyone at risk.

Watch for cold related symptoms: shortness of breath, chest pain, muscle pain and weakness, numbness and colour change in fingers and toes.

Cover up. Frostbite can develop within minutes on exposed skin, especially with wind chill.

If it’s too cold for you to stay outside, it’s too cold for your pet to stay outside.
