So I'm checking the weather, and note that there's a severe weather alert link. It comes up in bold red letters, so it's pretty easy to see. I click on it, wondering what sort of dire weather is in the offing.
Turns out it's frost:
"...FROST CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED IN SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND EARLY FRIDAY MORNING...
CLEAR SKIES...DRY AIR AND LIGHT WIND EARLY FRIDAY MORNING WILL ALLOW FROST TO FORM IN MANY PARTS OF SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND. LOCATIONS MOST AT RISK WILL BE THOSE AWAY FROM THE IMMEDIATE COAST AS WELL AS THOSE THAT ARE OUTSIDE OF URBAN CENTERS. THE FROST WILL BE MOST LIKELY BETWEEN 2 AM AND 8 AM ON FRIDAY MORNING.
GROUND LEVEL TEMPERATURES IN THE FROST AREAS WILL FALL TO THE LOW TO MID 30S.
IF YOU STILL HAVE SENSITIVE PLANTS OUTDOORS...IT WOULD BE WISE TO BRING THEM INDOORS DURING THE DAY ON THURSDAY."
The National Weather Service knows we're in New England, right? I especially enjoy the warning about bringing in sensitive plants. It sounds like Emily Post turned to writing a gardening column.
