‘Coldest air' of the season headed to the Triangle. When to expect first freeze

Central North Carolina could see frost and the area’s first freeze of the season this week. Temperatures dipped in the 30s and 40s early Monday, Nov. 9, and parts of the Triangle could see frost Tuesday morning, according to the National Weather Service. “Some frost is possible tomorrow morning,” said Nick Petro, warning coordination meteorologist with the National Weather Service’s Raleigh office. “Keep that in mind if you have concerns about that.” Frost is the formation of ice crystals on leaves and plants (or your car windshield), and can happen even if the temperatures don’t get below freezing. Think of it as the dew freezing from the colder temperatures. A frost advisory was issued for 1-8 a.m. Tuesday for all of central North Carolina, with temperatures expected in the “mid to upper 30s.” “Take steps now to protect tender plants from the cold, as frost could harm or kill sensitive outdoor vegetation if left uncovered,” according to the advisory.
