Burlington, VT – A chilly night is on tap for Vermont, with the National Weather Service (NWS) warning residents in the Northeast Kingdom to prepare for frost conditions overnight Thursday into Friday.
According to the NWS Burlington office, temperatures are expected to fall into the upper 30s and low 40s across much of the state. However, parts of the Northeast Kingdom may see lows dip into the mid-30s, creating a risk of frost formation.
The Frost Advisory is in effect tonight, September 11, and residents are advised to protect sensitive plants and outdoor vegetation from the cold. Gardeners and farmers in the affected areas are particularly encouraged to take precautions by covering plants or moving them indoors if possible.
Forecast maps show temperatures ranging from 38°F in Saranac Lake, NY, to the upper 40s near Burlington and southern Vermont communities such as Bennington and Brattleboro. The coldest conditions are expected in low-lying areas and valleys, where frost is most likely to form.
This advisory serves as a reminder that fall conditions are quickly approaching across northern New England. Similar chilly nights are possible in the coming weeks as the seasonal transition continues.
Residents in the Northeast Kingdom and surrounding counties should stay updated on overnight forecasts and be prepared for potential frost events through September.
