CLEVELAND — It is a frigid start to your Wednesday with temperatures in the 30s for many. A Frost Advisory and Freeze Warning are in effect until 9 a.m.. However, it will stay chilly throughout the entire day! Highs will struggle to reach 40 in a few spots. CLE will be close to a record cold high temperature (37 degrees).
There is also a chance for snow showers today! Accumulation will be possible - especially on colder surfaces like your car or lawn. Most locations will see little to no accumulation, but as you moved to the NE (in the primary and secondary snowbelts) 1-2'' will be possible with isolated higher amounts.
Believe it or not...it will be even colder tonight! A Freeze Warning has been issued for the entire Power of 5 viewing area Wednesday night and into Thursday morning. Sub-freezing temperatures as low as 25 expected. Locations near and slightly inland from the lake may not see the freezing temperatures. However, if winds decrease for a few hours near sunrise some frost will be possible.
Frost and freeze conditions will kill crops, other sensitive vegetation and possibly damage unprotected outdoor plumbing. Take steps now to protect tender plants from the cold. To prevent freezing and possible bursting of outdoor water pipes they should be wrapped, drained, or allowed to drip slowly. Those that have in-ground sprinkler systems should drain them and cover above-ground pipes to protect them from freezing.
