Near or below freezing temperatures are expected to impact the Southern Interior late tonight into early Saturday. Areas of frost are expected by Saturday morning. It might be best to wait until after the weekend to plant your garden or cover/protect sensitive vegetation that was already planted, since winter isn't quite over yet.
