The Piedmont Triad is a metropolitan region in the north-central part of the state of North Carolina anchored by three cities: Greensboro, Winston-Salem, and High Point. After being fooled by a “false spring,” the Triad now finds itself bracing for bitter cold temperatures that could damage some fruit crops after they were awakened early from their winter slumber by record warmth in January and February of 2023.
The National Weather Service issued a freeze warning in the Triad and much of North Carolina for Monday night and a freeze watch for Tuesday night. Similar temperatures are forecast for Wednesday night.
“Frost and freeze conditions will kill crops, other sensitive vegetation and possibly damage unprotected outdoor plumbing,” the NWS Raleigh Office advised Monday.
