A second winter storm in less than a week has Midwestern residents bracing for bitter subzero wind chills while those in the East Coast hunker down amid a fresh coat of snowfall.

Temperatures across the Midwest and Northern Plains have fallen below zero Sunday morning, but wind chill could drop to -50 degrees in some areas, according to the National Weather Service. Frostbite can set in on exposed skin within 10 minutes of being out in temperatures that severe, according to the agency.

Officials across the country are urging people to stay home for any non-essential business and keep off the roads for their own safety, with the weather causing impaired visibility and hazardous conditions.

Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot warned residents to take caution as the subzero temperatures were creeping in on the city Saturday night.-- excerpt, rest at link above --
