Charleston, WV – A freeze warning is in effect this morning across parts of Kentucky, Virginia, and West Virginia, with temperatures dropping as low as 30 degrees. The National Weather Service warns that these sub-freezing temperatures may harm crops, sensitive vegetation, and unprotected outdoor plumbing.
Residents in affected areas—including Boyd, Carter, and Greenup Counties in Kentucky, Buchanan County in Virginia, and McDowell County in West Virginia—should take immediate precautions to protect plants. Covering tender plants or bringing them indoors can help prevent frost damage. Additionally, exposed pipes should be wrapped or allowed to drip to avoid freezing.
With temperatures below freezing until 9 a.m., staying informed and prepared is essential as colder conditions settle in. Residents are encouraged to monitor local forecasts and protect plants and plumbing as necessary to mitigate damage during this cold snap.
