Environment Canada has issued a frost advisory for the Kawarthas region for early Saturday morning (September 20).
The frost advisory is in effect for Peterborough County, Kawartha Lakes, Haliburton County, Hastings Highlands, and eastern Northumberland County.
Frost is possible as temperatures drop overnight to near the freezing mark, or below the freezing mark in some areas, in the early hours of Saturday morning. Temperatures will rise to the double digits by late morning.
Frost may damage some crops in frost-prone areas.
Cover up plants, especially those in frost-prone areas, and take preventative measures to protect frost-sensitive plants and trees.
Frost advisories are issued when temperatures are expected to reach the freezing mark during the growing season, leading to potential damage and destruction to plants and crops.
