* Frost Advisories and Freeze Warning in Effect for Portions of the Hudson Valley *
The National Weather Service in Upton Long Island (NYC Office) has issued Frost Advisories for Putnam, Rockland and Westchester Counties… along with a Freeze Warning for Orange County. The remaining counties in the Hudson Valley are covered by either the Albany or Binghamton Offices, and no advisories have been issued yet. It stands to reason however, that if advisories are in effect for our southernmost counties, that similar (or colder) conditions can be expected further north across the northern HV. Please plan for a hard frost, and possible hard freeze tonight.
