The National Weather Service office in Mount Holly, New Jersey has issued a freeze watch beginning Friday, April 19th at 1:11 AM and remaining in effect until Sunday, April 21st at 9:00 AM.
Weather forecasters are warning residents to prepare for potentially damaging cold temperatures that could affect outdoor plants, gardens, and agricultural crops during this extended period.
The freeze watch indicates that conditions are favorable for temperatures to drop to 32 degrees or below, which could cause significant harm to temperature-sensitive vegetation and plants that have already begun their spring growth.
Residents are advised to take precautionary measures to protect tender plants, outdoor plumbing, and other items that could be damaged by freezing conditions during this late-season cold snap.
