(Wilmington, Oh.) - Residents in the tri-state area are encouraged to protect sensitive vegetation and outdoor plumbing.

The National Weather Service in Wilmington has issued a Freeze Warning for the tri-state area from 10:00 p.m. on Monday to 10:00 a.m. on Tuesday.

Sub-freezing temperatures are expected overnight with a low of 30 degrees.

Frost and freeze conditions will kill crops, other sensitive vegetation and possibly damage unprotected outdoor plumbing.

in-ground sprinkler systems should drain them and cover above-ground pipes to protect them from freezing.
