...ISOLATED AREAS TO SEE FIRST FREEZE...
A chilly morning is expected for New Mexico Thursday morning with
the coolest air of the season so far. Dry air, light winds, and
clear skies will set the stage for effective cooling. This pattern
will allow sheltered, low-lying areas to cool to near or just
below the freezing mark early in the morning before warming again
shortly after sunrise. Agricultural interests in known cold
regions should take precautions to protect plants from a possible
frost or freeze. Freeze warnings may be issued this afternoon if
the forecast indicates a more widespread freeze is likely.
