Cover your tomatoes, cold air expected for Carson City and Tahoe tonight
The weekend's unseasonably cool weather will leave the Carson City and Lake Tahoe region overnight with a brisk punch instead of a whimper.
Low temperatures with patchy fog are expected through Monday morning, according to Carsonweather.com and the National Weather Service.
A strong low pressure system that parked itself over the area will leave tonight and bring with it clear skies and radiational cooling that will drop temperatures into the 20s for Lake Tahoe, which may cause a hard frost, while temperatures could dip to the lower to mid 30s in the valleys around Carson City, according Carsonweather.com.
Those with sensitive outdoor plants should consider covering them or if possible move the plants indoors.
