“Cold Front Chaos: Kinston Braces for the Bite”

Good evening, Kinston.

Tonight, heavy rain showers are moving through our area. Winds are gusting near twenty miles per hour. Temperatures will drop sharply once the skies clear. By early morning, we’ll be down near eighteen degrees.

That means slick roads. Wet pavement tonight will freeze into black ice by dawn.

Here’s how to prepare:

Bundle up. Wind chills will feel like single digits.

Protect your pipes. Cover outdoor faucets.

Bring pets inside.

Drive carefully tomorrow morning.

And check on neighbors, especially the elderly or anyone without reliable heat.

Tomorrow, skies turn sunny, but the cold sticks around. Highs will only reach the mid‑thirties. By midweek, we’ll rebound into the sixties.

So tonight and tomorrow morning are the danger zone. Stay safe, stay warm, and keep tuned for updates.

This is Quarla Blackwell, keeping Kinston informed.”
