<body><div><p>BOWLING GREEN, Ky. (WBKO) - A low-pressure system moving through the Ohio Valley will bring strong winds to South-central Kentucky Thursday and Friday, and those gusty conditions will make it feel much colder than the actual temperature.</p><h2>What to Expect</h2><p>Strong northwest winds will develop Thursday afternoon and continue through Friday morning, with gusts reaching up to 30 miles per hour. While Thursday’s high will be in the mid 50s, the real story is how cold it will <i>feel</i> that night.</p><p>Friday morning’s low temperature will be around 34 degrees — but with the wind chill, it will feel like the upper 20s. By Saturday morning, wind chills will drop even further into the low 20s as cold air continues to settle in behind the system.</p><figure><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=4ICeSI_1GzOa0FY00" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=4ICeSI_1GzOa0FY00" width="1300" height="730" ><figcaption>Temperatures in the low 30s feel like low 20s Friday morning (Reagan Hurt)</figcaption></figure><h2>Stay Safe and Prepared</h2><p>This kind of wind chill can be dangerous, especially for young children and older adults. Here’s what you should do:</p><ul><li><b>Bundle up for your commute.</b> Dress in layers Thursday and Friday mornings — it will feel significantly colder than the thermometer suggests.</li><li><b>Protect kids at the bus stop.</b> Make sure children are dressed warmly. With wind chills in the 20s, exposed skin can be at risk.</li><li><b>Warm up your car longer.</b> Give your vehicle extra time to defrost and warm up Friday morning before heading out.</li><li><b>Limit outdoor time for pets.</b> Cold this intense isn’t comfortable for animals either, especially overnight.</li></ul><h2>Looking Ahead</h2><p>Once this system moves through, high pressure will build in by the weekend, setting up a dry stretch of weather that will last into early next week. However, don’t expect much of a warmup — cold conditions will continue and remain fairly unchanging through the next several days.</p><p><b>DOWNLOAD</b> the WBKO First Alert Weather App for the latest on the forecast.
