Description

What

Temperatures as low as 33 to 36 will result in frost formation.

Where

Portions of northwest and west central Oregon and southwest Washington.

When

Until 8 AM PDT Monday.

Impacts

Frost could harm sensitive outdoor vegetation. Sensitive outdoor plants may be killed if left uncovered.

Instructions

Take steps now to protect tender outdoor plants from the cold. Consider temporarily moving outdoor potted plants indoors if they are sensitive to cold temperatures. Consider temporarily covering sensitive plants with a lightweight cotton fabric (i.e., bedsheets, thin blankets), as this will help retain heat and provide frost protection for your plants.
