Central Park’s forecasted low of 3 would be the coldest temperature recorded since Feb. 4, 2023, when 3 degrees was also the low temperature. The ongoing strong winds will keep all locations feeling well below zero, even as low -30 degrees north and west.

Even though the winds won’t be gusting as high as they did on Saturday – mainly in the 25-35 mph range – they’ll still be strong enough to keep wind chills near or below zero all day.
