...FROST ADVISORY IN EFFECT FROM MIDNIGHT TONIGHT TO 9 AM CDT
WEDNESDAY...
* WHAT...Overnight and early Wednesday morning temperatures as cold
as 28 to 36 degrees will likely result in areas of frost.
* WHERE...Portions of north central Kansas and central, east
central, and south central Nebraska, including the Tri Cities.
* WHEN...From midnight tonight to 9 AM CDT Wednesday.
* IMPACTS...Frost could harm sensitive outdoor vegetation. Sensitive
outdoor plants may be killed if left uncovered.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Although slightly sub-freezing temperatures
are possible especially within counties north and west of the
Nebraska Tri Cities, there is a little uncertainty regarding just
how cold it will get. Even if some areas drop slightly below
freezing, frost is expected to be the primary threat to tender
vegetation, and not necessarily a true, killing freeze. That being
said, given at least some potential for slightly sub-freezing
temperatures, especially in northern and western counties,
precautions to protect outdoor irrigation systems and hoses from
possible damage might also need considered.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
Take steps now to protect tender plants from the cold.
