Hard Freeze Watch
Statement as of 3:49 PM CST on February 10, 2012

... Hard freeze watch remains in effect from late Saturday night
through Sunday morning...

* timing... Sunday between midnight and 8 am for temperatures
near 20 or possibly below 20.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A hard freeze watch means there is a significant risk temperatures
will fall to near 20 degrees or lower Saturday night into Sunday
morning. These conditions could kill crops and other cold sensitive
vegetation. Check on elderly neighbors to make sure they have
adequate heat. Area shelters should make preparations for extra
demand. Pets and livestock should be protected.

All should take adequate safety precautions with heating systems.
Use Carbon monoxide detectors in enclosed spaces. Extra caution
should be used with portable space heaters. Make sure they are not
left unattended and are not used near flammable materials such as
curtains or bed coverings. Listen to NOAA Weather Radio or your local
news media outlets for later updates on the developing cold weather
situation over the next day or two.

Temperatures such as these especially after a prolonged warm period
can bring on complacency. Remember sensitive plants... exposed water
pipes... and water cooled engines needing antifreeze.
