Extreme cold warning issued for Cochrane

An extreme cold warning has been issued for Cochrane.

Environment Canada says extremely cold wind chills near -40 are expected overnight and early Monday morning.

Temperatures will moderate on Monday, but extreme cold may return Monday night. Temperatures will moderate more substantially on Tuesday.

Extreme cold puts everyone at risk. Dress warmly. Dress in layers that you can remove if you get too warm.

The outer layer should be wind resistant. If it’s too cold for you to stay outside, it’s too cold for your pet to stay outside.
