Frost advisory and freeze warnings west of the District tonight.
11:00 a.m. — Frost advisories and freeze warnings issued west and north of the District
A cool front sweeping through the region today brings scattered rain showers through the mid-afternoon. The front is followed by clearing skies tonight which sets the stage for the first frost and freeze of the fall in parts of the region.
A frost advisory is in effect from 2 a.m. to 10 a.m. Wednesday for Stafford, Prince William, Fairfax, eastern Loudoun, eastern Montgomery, and eastern Howard counties, for low temperatures as low as 33 degrees.
A freeze warning is in effect to the north and west of the frost advisory zone, including Fauquier, western Loudoun, western Montgomery, western Howard, Frederick and Carroll counties, for temperatures as low as 29 degrees.
“Take steps now to protect tender plants from the cold,” the National Weather Service advised for the areas under the freeze warning. “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.”
