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.

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

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.

The snowfall started late Friday night and stole away before sunrise on Saturday. Measuring in the one-to-two-inch range over a significant portion of the Washington region, it threw a new white coating over dry and bare places from which Monday’s snowfall had been patiently cleared.
