Fun Facts About Frost Bite

I am not sure you saw the graphic Eric made that I used for the six and ten but here is are some facts about frost bite that will make you think twice before going outside this weekend with no hat, scarves, coat, or gloves.


When the wind chill is at -15 degrees...it takes 40 minutes for frost bite to set in.

When the wind chill is at -20 degrees...it takes only 30 minutes for frost bite to take place.

When the wind chill is at -25 degrees (like tonight) it only takes a mere 20 minute for frost bite to set in.


TWO WORDS: BUNDLE UP!!

Those are some nice facts. But not exactly fun.
