Frost is the main concern we’re watching for. Overnight Friday night and again Saturday night, temperatures will drop into the middle 30s.

With clear skies and light winds, frost is likely with temperatures that low. We’ll have to cover up or bring in any plants we don’t want damaged by the cold.

Temperatures should begin to moderate a bit beginning Sunday afternoon.

More spring-like warmth returns by the middle of next week with highs returning to the lower 70s.
