Key Messages:

1) Sub-freezing temperatures and areas of frost this morning.

2) Warmer today as upper level ridging builds overhead.

Calm winds and clear skies have lead to a quick drop in
temperatures this morning. Expecting plenty of below freezing
readings by daybreak and perhaps a few locations in the upper
20s in the more sheltered higher elevation valleys.

Temperatures quickly warm and should see 60s across the area
today and perhaps a few low 70s across the Virginia/North
Carolina Piedmont.

Another chilly night tonight, but not expected to be quite as
cold as this morning. However, should still should have plenty
of 30s again tonight.
