Damaging Freeze Tonight

A weather system tracking across the state today will combine with unseasonably cold air to produce snow, or a rain and snow mix. Minor accumulations up to an inch or two are possible, mainly on grassy and elevated surfaces. Tonight, temperatures will fall into the mid to upper 20s, thus a Freeze Warning is in effect for the area. Temperatures will fall below freezing again Wednesday night into Thursday morning. The next front moves into the area Friday into Saturday, when temperatures will be warm enough for scattered rain showers.

A glancing blow of freezing temperatures will arrive tonight and again Wednesday night. Sensitive vegetation will need to be covered or brought indoors.
