STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. \u2014 Staten Island residents face dangerously cold conditions as a Cold Weather Advisory remains in effect through 10 a.m. <\/p>\n
Saturday. Wind chills will make temperatures feel significantly colder than actual readings, creating potentially hazardous conditions for anyone outdoors.<\/p>\n
According to the National Weather Service, frigid conditions will persist through Saturday with record-breaking cold possible Friday. Temperatures today may challenge the record low maximum of 16 degrees set in 1934, with actual temperatures remaining well below freezing. <\/p>\n
Wind chills will be particularly dangerous overnight Friday into Saturday morning, prompting the extension of the Cold Weather Advisory through mid-morning Saturday.<\/p>\n
The cold snap will begin to ease Sunday, though gusty winds will develop Saturday night through Sunday night. The National Weather Service forecasts northerly winds of 15-25 mph with gusts reaching 30-40 mph, potentially approaching 45 mph in coastal areas. <\/p>\n
These strong winds combined with astronomically high tides due to an approaching full moon could produce minor coastal flooding during nighttime high tide cycles Saturday night through Sunday night.<\/p>\n
A storm system passing offshore may bring very light snow to the New York City area late Saturday night through Sunday, but accumulations are expected to be minimal with less than an inch possible. The chance of significant snow impacts continues to decrease with each forecast update.<\/p>\n
Looking ahead to next week, conditions should improve with temperatures gradually moderating. Monday and Tuesday will feature northwest flow with clearer skies expected. Residents should continue monitoring forecasts as the weekend approaches for any changes to the expected conditions.<\/p>\n
