Woke up this morning to a rime of frost, almost like a light dusting of snow, on everything. Been cool all day, and now word is that we have a freeze warning tonight.
THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN DENVER HAS ISSUED A FREEZE WARNING…WHICH IS IN EFFECT FROM 11 PM THIS EVENING TO 8 AM MDT THURSDAY.
TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO DROP BELOW FREEZING TONIGHT…UNDER CLEARING SKIES AND DIMINISHING WINDS.
A FREEZE WARNING MEANS SUB-FREEZING TEMPERATURES ARE IMMINENT OR HIGHLY LIKELY. THESE CONDITIONS WILL KILL CROPS AND OTHER SENSITIVE OUTDOOR VEGETATION. IF POSSIBLE…MOVE PLANTS INDOORS TO PROTECT THEM FROM THE COLD. OTHERWISE COVER THEM WITH NEWSPAPERS OR BLANKETS.
Just a gentle reminder of the variability of Colorado weather.

I was kind of shocked when my cell phone went off with the warning. It is weird in that the forecast low in Fort Collins is 31.
