WEATHER UPDATE: Freezing Warning Issued for the Area

Don’t plant that garden yet, a freeze warning has been issued in parts of Connecticut.

The National Weather Service has issued a freeze warning for Tolland, Windham and Hartford counties along with northern Fairfield, New Haven, Middlesex and New London counties.

The warning goes from about 2 a.m. until 9 a.m.

Temperatures will dip into the high 20’s and lower 30’s.

Early-planted vegetation can be killed by the cold temperatures. The NWS advises people to protect vegetation or bring it inside.

This weekend, we’re looking at sun and chilly temperatures. Well, chilly as compared to last week’s 70-degree weather.

Before we get to the actual weekend, we’ll have to contend with the potential for patchy frost early Friday.

The National Weather Service actually mentions the wind chill value on Friday, which will be between 30-40 degrees. Friday night will be chilly too, with temps in the mid 30s.

But Saturday will approach 60 degrees and there will be plenty of sunshine, and on Sunday temps will be around the same, with more sun.
