A COLD WEATHER ADVISORY is in effect for Preble, Montgomery, Greene, Butler, Warren, Clinton, and Wayne counties from midnight through 9 a.m.Thursday.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT:
the coldest temperatures will be felt across the southern half of the Miami Valley where the combination of a clearing sky and deep snowpack could allow temperatures to fall to the lower single digits and even below zero.
