A wind chill advisory across the region has been canceled shortly before it was set to expire at noon, but it remains dangerously cold out there. At BWI Airport, temperatures were at 18 degrees shortly before noon with wind gusts up to 30 mph, making it still feel around zero or below. Health officials warned that the combination of cold temperatures and wind could lead to frostbite and hypothermia and urged residents to bundle up.

What looks wet, will probably be ice. Use caution over the next 24-48hrs as temps stay under the freezing mark.
