Freeze Warning Saturday Night, And Don’t Forget To ‘Spring Forward’

March 12, 2022

There is a freeze warning in effect for the entire area tonight. Sub-freezing temperatures in the low to mid-20s are expected north of I-10, with temperatures in the upper 20s to around 30 degrees all the way to the coast.

Take steps now to protect tender plants from the cold. To prevent freezing and possible bursting of outdoor water pipes they should be wrapped, drained, or allowed to drip slowly. Those that have in-ground sprinkler systems should drain them and cover above-ground pipes to protect them from freezing.

And, as a reminder, “spring ahead” and set your clocks ahead one hour before going o bed.
