Prospects for Frost Saturday Morning

Cold dry air is moving into our region tomorrow.  This sets the stage for North Central VA, particularly west of I-95 and North of Richmond to receive the first frost of the season.


Here in Central NC there is the possibility of light frost on cars and elevated surfaces.  I expect that those of us with ripening tomatoes and peppers will be able to give them almost another week.  Below is the National Weather Service's projected 8 AM temperatures for Saturday morning.  Based on last week's behavior of Typhoon Megi I agree with the idea of a marginal frost situation.
