NEW YORK -- The dangerously cold weather continues Wednesday around New York City, and temperatures won't climb back above the freezing mark for a while.

The National Weather Service has issued a cold weather advisory for coastal/interior New Jersey and the Catskills until 12 p.m. for wind chills as cold as -25°.

It's a First Alert Weather Day as we're tracking very cold temperatures across the region.

It was a cold one yesterday, and it will be a cold one today.

We woke up to widespread, sub-zero wind chills this morning. Unfortunately, air temperatures will likely get stuck in the teens once again. The good news is, high pressure will nudge in and provide the area with some wind relief.

It will be frigid again tonight, but we'll start to usher in more of a southwest wind. Even so, temperatures will dip into the teens and single digits around the area.

We're stuck in the freezer tomorrow, but temperatures will be running about 10° warmer with highs approaching 30°. So, a slight improvement.

Thankfully, temperatures will continue to moderate into the weekend, with highs pushing 40° by Sunday.

The bottom line is, it will be cold, and dangerously cold at times, so you'll need to dress in layers and be mindful of exposed skin.

Doctors say prolonged exposure to extreme cold poses serious health risks.

If you start feeling pain in your extremities, fingertips or toes, it is a first sign your body is too cold and can be a symptom of frostbite. Other signs to look out for include tingling, numbness and change in skin color or texture.

Shivering can be a symptom of hypothermia, along with slurred speech, slow and shallow breathing or drowsiness.

Wet shoes, socks and gloves increase your risk of frostbite. If you or anyone around you experiences any symptoms of hypothermia or frostbite, get inside, take everything off, make sure you are dry and get warmed up.
