A Winter Weather Advisory for blowing snow means that
visibilities will be limited due to strong winds blowing snow
around. Drifting snow may make travel hazardous. Use caution when
traveling, especially in open areas.
A Wind Chill Advisory means that cold air and the wind will
combine to create low wind chills. Frostbite and hypothermia can
occur if precautions are not taken. Make sure you wear a warm hat
and gloves.
