The coldest air of the season is hitting the East Coast on Friday -- and it's only going to get colder.
Here is your cheat sheet for how to brave the frigid weather, from what to wear outside to what to remember when you're driving.Those with prolonged exposure or those not dressed appropriately for the weather are in danger of frostbite and hypothermia, National Weather Service meteorologist Jay Engle told ABC News.
“Don’t rub your hands -- if you have frost-nip or frostbite, rubbing actually causes tissue damage," Dr. Randall Wexler, professor of family medicine at Ohio State University, told ABC News. There's also hypothermia -- or abnormally low body temperature -- which can impact the brain,"making the victim unable to think clearly or move well," the CDC said."This makes hypothermia especially dangerous, because a person may not know that it’s happening and won’t be able to do anything about it."
"People really should keep their heads covered because that’s where majority of heat gets lost," Engle added."If you are overheated and start to sweat, that lowers your body temperature and makes you more susceptible to cold injury," he said."You want to be able to adjust your layers, zip and unzip."The young and elderly should be especially careful in the cold.
