Washington D.C residents have been experiencing extreme cold in recent days, but forecasters say they can expect temperatures to warm up in the very near future. Millions of people are facing frigid temperatures through this week.

The NWS office in Baltimore/Washington, D.C., said in Thursday's winter storm warning: "Heavy snow expected. Total snow accumulations between 4 and 8 inches, with localized amounts up to 10 inches. Winds gusting as high as 40 mph, especially on the ridges."

A Cold Weather Advisory remains in effect until 11 a.m. Wednesday for Washington, D.C., and portions of Maryland, and northern Virginia.

A "combination of strong winds and very cold temperatures will result in dangerously cold wind chills," the National Weather Service said.
