Eureka, CA – A frost advisory remains in effect for parts of Northern California, including Mendocino and Lake counties, from 1 a.m. PST to 10 a.m. PDT Sunday, according to the National Weather Service (NWS) in Eureka.
The advisory affects areas such as Lakeport, Willits, Potter Valley, Clearlake, and Middletown. The NWS warns that temperatures could drop as low as 33 degrees, leading to frost formation. This may pose a risk to sensitive outdoor plants and vegetation.
Residents are urged to take precautions by covering or bringing plants indoors to prevent damage. Farmers and gardeners should take extra steps to protect crops and sensitive vegetation from cold exposure.
Frost advisories are common in early spring across Northern California as nighttime temperatures can still dip below freezing. Historically, March cold snaps in the region have caused damage to fruit trees and other vulnerable plants.
Those traveling early in the morning should be cautious of potentially slick roads due to frost accumulation. The NWS advises staying updated on weather conditions through official sources and taking necessary precautions.
