Significantly low temperatures were forecast across the region Tuesday night through Wednesday.

Snow was also possible across the Carolinas Tuesday into Wednesday, with any accumulation expected to freeze.

Communities in the southern and eastern Piedmont, and part of the northern Coastal Plain, were expected to receive 1-2 inches of snow by Wednesday, according to the National Weather Service.
