Frost advisories have been issued for some counties in our area for early Saturday morning.

The National Weather Service in Hastings, Neb., has issued a frost advisory in effect from 1-9 a.m. Saturday that includes Jewell County.

Temperatures as low as 33 will result in frost formation.

There remains some uncertainty as to thickness and persistence of potential cloud cover late overnight, so confidence in frost is only medium from Arapahoe, Neb., to Mankato, Kan.

Additionally, the National Weather Service in Topeka has issued a frost advisory in effect from 1-9 a.m. Saturday for the following counties in our area.

Clay County

Cloud County

Republic County

Temperatures as low as 33 will result in frost formation.

Take steps now to protect tender plants from the cold.
