We are starting off this middle of the work week on a VERY chilly note with frosty conditions across most of the state.

Temps this morning will be in the low and mid <span id=\"RadESpellError_0\" class=\"RadEWrongWord\">30s<\/span> with frost common. A few of the traditional cold spots can dip into the upper <span id=\"RadESpellError_1\" class=\"RadEWrongWord\">20s<\/span>.

Temps should hit the low and maybe middle <span id=\"RadESpellError_5\" class=\"RadEWrongWord\">80s<\/span> with partly sunny skies rolling on.<\/p>\n<p>It is by the end of the day that clouds will start to increase from the west as a cold front inches closer from the west. This front will bring\u00a0 a line of showers and thunderstorms in from west to east Friday night into Derby Day.
