Issued: 12:30 AM Dec. 25, 2025 – Environment and Climate Change Canada
Strong outflow winds and cold wind chill values continue. When: Now to Saturday Where: North Coast - inland including Stewart, Terrace, and Kitimat. Remark: An arctic airmass combined with strong outflow winds are producing low wind chill values near minus 20 . Air temperature are expected to range between minus 10 and minus 14. These temperatures combined with outflow winds, gusting to 60 km/h near Terrace and Kitimat, will significantly increase the risk of cold-related impacts throughout this period. The very cold wind chill values are expected to continue until Saturday. ### Frostbite and hypothermia can occur within minutes if adequate precautions are not taken when outdoors. Arctic outflow warnings are issued when bitterly cold air flows from the interior to coastal communities and the outflow winds create wind chill values of -20 or less for 6 hours or more.
