Frost and freeze conditions could kill tender plants and potentially damage unprotected outdoor plumbing.\n\nResidents are urged to take protective action now. Cover or bring indoors any sensitive plants, disconnect and drain garden hoses, and ensure outdoor pipes are properly insulated. Farmers and gardeners should consider covering crops with blankets or tarps overnight.\n\nThis late-season freeze warning is particularly concerning as many plants have already begun their spring growth cycle. The warning expires at 9 AM Tuesday, with temperatures expected to rise above freezing as the sun comes up.\n\nStay with TV Delmarva for continued updates on this developing weather situation.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Freeze Warning is in effect Tuesday morning across much of Delmarva, with temperatures dropping as low as 28 degrees that could damage crops and sensitive vegetation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":55120,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[29],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-55121","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/tvdelmarva.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/news-1776722854913.jpg?fit=1200%2C630&ssl=1","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pbtNqq-el3","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":48875,"url":"https:\/\/tvdelmarva.com\/wp\/freeze-warning-in-effect-across-delmarva-until-9-am-protect-plants-and-pipes\/","url_meta":{"origin":55121,"position":0},"title":"Freeze Warning in Effect Across Delmarva Until 9 AM; Protect Plants and Pipes","author":"Admin","date":"April 8, 2026","format":false,"excerpt":"Temperatures as low as 28 degrees threaten crops and outdoor plumbing across Kent, Sussex, and Eastern Shore counties until 9 AM today.","rel":"","context":"In &quot;News&quot;","block_context":{"text":"News","link":"https:\/\/tvdelmarva.com\/wp\/category\/news\/"},"img":{"alt_text":"","src":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/tvdelmarva.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/news-1775639285113.jpg?fit=1200%2C630&ssl=1&resize=350%2C200","width":350,"height":200,"srcset":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/tvdelmarva.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/news-1775639285113.jpg?fit=1200%2C630&ssl=1&resize=350%2C200 1x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/tvdelmarva.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/news-1775639285113.jpg?fit=1200%2C630&ssl=1&resize=525%2C300 1.5x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/tvdelmarva.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/news-1775639285113.jpg?fit=1200%2C630&ssl=1&resize=700%2C400 2x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/tvdelmarva.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/news-1775639285113.jpg?fit=1200%2C630&ssl=1&resize=1050%2C600 3x"},"classes":[]},{"id":48975,"url":"https:\/\/tvdelmarva.com\/wp\/freeze-warning-issued-for-delmarva-as-temperatures-drop-to-28-degrees\/","url_meta":{"origin":55121,"position":1},"title":"Freeze Warning Issued for Delmarva as Temperatures Drop to 28 Degrees","author":"Admin","date":"April 8, 2026","format":false,"excerpt":"Temperatures will drop to 28 degrees across Delmarva tonight through Thursday morning.
