Spokane, WA – A freeze watch has been issued for the Spokane area and northern valleys as temperatures are expected to drop to as low as 26 degrees Fahrenheit by Monday morning. Residents should prepare for frost and freezing conditions overnight Sunday into Monday.
According to the National Weather Service in Spokane, winds will subside tomorrow evening, transitioning the concern to frost and freeze potential. The warning primarily affects the northern valleys, including Spokane, Republic, Colville, and Coeur d’Alene.
Officials recommend residents take immediate steps to protect sensitive plants and crops from the cold, especially during the night. Moving tender plants indoors or covering them can help prevent damage.
Additionally, precautions should be taken to secure plants from strong winds expected earlier in the day. Gardeners and farmers in the area are urged to monitor weather conditions closely over the weekend.
Temperatures are projected to rise by mid-week, but until then, Spokane residents must remain vigilant to protect their gardens and agricultural investments from frost damage.
