SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
325 PM EDT SUN MAY 19 2002

...SCATTERED FROST IN THE NORMALLY COLDER AREAS TONIGHT...

THE COMBINATION OF UNSEASONABLY COOL CANADIAN AIR...DIMINISHING 
WINDS AND CLEARING TONIGHT WILL CAUSE TEMPERATURES TO DROP 
SUFFICIENTLY FOR SCATTERED FROST TO DEVELOP ESPECIALLY IN SHELTERED 
AND LOW LYING AREAS. LOW TEMPERATURES TONIGHT SHOULD DROP INTO THE 
MID TO UPPER 30S AND THIS IS COLD ENOUGH FOR FROST TO DEVELOP. AIR 
TEMPERATURES ARE NORMALLY MEASURED ABOUT 5 FEET ABOVE THE GROUND. ON 
NIGHTS LIKE TONIGHT WITH LIGHT WINDS...TEMPERATURES AT OR JUST ABOVE 
THE GROUND CAN BE COLDER AND THUS PERMIT FROST TO FORM.

THOSE WITH OUTDOOR PLANTS MAY WANT TO COVER THEM OR BRING THEM 
INSIDE TO REMOVE THEM FROM ANY RISK OF FROST DAMAGE. UNFORTUNATELY 
THIS MAY NOT BE THE ONLY NIGHT THIS WEEK WHERE FROST COULD OCCUR AS 
A CHILLY AIR MASS IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN OVER THE REGION THROUGHOUT 
THE FIRST HALF OF THIS WEEK.

STAY TUNED TO NOAA WEATHER RADIO...YOUR LOCAL RADIO OR TELEVISION 
STATIONS...OR YOUR CABLE TELEVISION OUTLET FOR FURTHER DETAILS OR 
UPDATES. ADDITIONAL WEATHER INFORMATION CAN BE FOUND ON THE INTERNET 
AT WWW.NWS.NOAA.GOV/ER/PHI IN SMALL LETTERS.
