Freezing Temperatures Expected Tonight

A freeze warning remains in effect from midnight CDT tonight to 8:00 a.m. CDT Thursday.

Temperatures will drop below 32 degrees again away from downtown Chicago for several hours tonight into early Thursday morning. Several locations will also drop below 28 degrees for a few hours producing a hard freeze.

Impacts with the record warm March spurring vegetation growth much earlier than normal sensitive vegetation may be damaged or killed by the freezing temperatures.

A freeze warning means sub-freezing temperatures are imminent or highly likely. These conditions will kill drops and other sensitive vegetation. Cover sensitive plants or bring indoors for protection.
