Update: Freeze warning affecting South Central Oregon Coast and Curry County Coast until Friday morning

The National Weather Service launched an up to date freeze warning at 5:21 am on Friday in impact until 9 am for South Central Oregon Coast and Curry County Coast.

The climate service states, “Sub-freezing temperatures as low as 25 degrees expected with temperatures around 28 degrees to 32 degrees along the immediate coast.”

“Frost and freeze conditions could kill crops, other sensitive vegetation and possibly damage unprotected outdoor plumbing,” explains the climate service. “Take steps now to protect tender plants from the cold.”

What to do if there’s a freeze watch or warning

Freeze warnings are issued from May to October (however will be prolonged if obligatory), when low temperatures are anticipated to be 29-32 levels. If there’s a potential for temperatures to fall into these thresholds, a freeze watch could also be issued a couple of days forward of time.

According to the climate service, if a freeze warning or watch is issued on your space, there’s little you are able to do to guard crops. If you possibly can transfer your delicate crops inside, achieve this as a result of the freeze will doubtless kill them, relying on the severity of situations.
