According to AccuWeather, temperatures are forecast to drop below freezing, with a high of 35 degrees Fahrenheit and a low of 20 degrees Fahrenheit expected on Wednesday. The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Weather Advisory for the area, urging residents to take precautions to stay safe.
