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.
