As temperatures plummet in Milwaukee, residents are being urged to take precautions against the severe cold. With lows expected to dip below zero and highs struggling to reach the single digits, the Milwaukee Health Department has issued a health advisory to ensure public safety during this frigid spell.
The advisory highlights the dangers of prolonged exposure to extreme cold, which can lead to frostbite and hypothermia. Residents are encouraged to dress in layers, cover exposed skin, and limit time spent outdoors. Vulnerable populations, such as the elderly and those with pre-existing health conditions, are particularly at risk and should take extra care.
Additionally, the advisory stresses the importance of keeping homes warm and ensuring that heating systems are functioning properly.
