The National Weather Service office in Mount Holly, New Jersey has issued a freeze warning that took effect Monday evening at 9:52 PM and will remain in place until 9:00 AM Tuesday morning.
The warning alerts residents to prepare for freezing temperatures that could damage sensitive vegetation and cause problems with exposed outdoor plumbing.
Gardeners and homeowners are advised to bring in potted plants, cover tender garden plants, and ensure outdoor water pipes are protected from the cold.
The freeze warning comes as unseasonably cold air moves through the region overnight, creating conditions that could harm plants that have already begun their spring growth.
