Temperatures below freezing are expected in the county through Wednesday night.  Dangerously low wind chill readings are expected, especially tonight. This will cause danger to exposed pipes and frostbite and hypothermia are likely with prolonged exposure.

Due to these very cold temperatures well below freezing, any snow accumulating on roadways will result in treacherous conditions.
