Geraldton – Weather – Geraldton and the Greenstone area are in for a fast-moving cold punch today, with north winds ramping up and temperatures falling hard through the afternoon. The immediate concerns are reduced visibility in light snow, a risk of freezing drizzle this morning, then periods of snow with local blowing snow tonight.

The bigger story: dangerous wind chills pushing toward -27 tonight and near -31 Monday, with frostbite risk.

Wardrobe Recommendations

• Today: Winter coat + insulating mid-layer, toque, scarf/neck warmer, and mitts. The wind turns strong and the afternoon will feel much colder than the morning.

• Tonight/Monday (wind chills -27 to -31): Cover exposed skin—add a face covering, warmer mitts, and insulated boots. If you’ll be outside longer than a few minutes, plan for wind protection.

• Driving/errands: Keep extra gloves and a blanket in the vehicle. Blowing snow can reduce visibility quickly outside town.

Weather Trivia

When temperatures drop while winds increase, it can feel like the weather “changed instantly.” That’s wind chill in action: moving air strips heat away from skin faster, so even “only” a few degrees colder can feel dramatically harsher once gusts pick up.
