Are these both grammatical?

Are these both grammatical?

Hopefully I won't be/feel as cold today.
Hopefully I won't freeze as much today.

Thanks

Yes. But many people who love good English dislike this use of 'Hopefully'. It means, really, eg that you will be feeling hopeful while you are not freezing.
