Western Mass. sees coldest days yet with wind chill

And that wind chill not helping either. Many towns this morning feeling below zero. 22 News Storm Team meteorologist Alexa Biano joining us live now with how frigid it's been. >> Yes, Nick and Sarah. We've seen quite a few well below average days and today was definitely one of them. Frigid temperatures continued with many well below average days around 10 to 15° colder. Our average highs around this time of month is in the upper 30s close to 40° and lows in the mid20s. And along with wind chills on gusty days, that didn't help either. >> It's what the air feels like when you walk out the doors on your skin, on your bare skin, I should say. And windchill is of course what you get when the wind picks up. Um it makes it feel colder than it actually is. Um and it can vary about how cold it can get depending on what the wind speed is. Whether it's wind speeds or wind gusts, wind chills can make it feel well below zero for many areas, especially for places like Berkshire County that was under a cold advisory on Monday for temperatures feeling below 10 and even below 20°. With temperatures this freezing, people need to have as much skin covered as possible. >> A lot of what we do in the winter, a lot of water breaks and that type of thing. Sometimes the hole is warmer than the air up up top. So if you're digging six, seven feet down, it's warmer in the ground. We get caught up with the water and of course then our hands and our feet are freezing.
