California’s Fresno Parts of central California, including Fresno, Bakersfield, and Visalia, are still under a freeze warning, with lows of 28 degrees Fahrenheit. The notice, which is in effect until Tuesday at 9 a.m., was issued by the Hanford National Weather Service.
Merced, Madera, Los Banos, and Delano are among the locations in the San Joaquin Valley that will experience sub-freezing temperatures, according to the NWS. Unprotected crops, delicate vegetation, and outdoor plumbing may sustain harm from the cold spell.
Residents are advised to take preventative measures, such as insulating exposed pipes, bringing pets inside, and covering plants. Potential crop losses could be experienced by farmers in the area, who are already dealing with cold conditions.
A string of winter weather patterns that have affected California in recent weeks are followed by this cold front. Overnight lows will be cold, but temperatures are predicted to increase slightly by Tuesday morning.
Particularly in remote locations, drivers should exercise caution when driving on roads that may be covered in frost. As temperatures continue to plummet overnight, stay informed about the most recent weather alerts and make appropriate preparations.
