A freeze warning is currently in effect for Paso Robles and its surrounding areas. Sub-freezing temperatures as low as 30 degrees are anticipated for this morning, and sub-freezing temperatures as low as 28 degrees are expected for both tonight and Tuesday morning in some areas. This warning encompasses several regions, including the Cuyama Valley, Southern Salinas Valley, San Luis Obispo County Interior Valleys, and Antelope Valley.
The current freeze warning remains in effect until 8 a.m. this morning, with a subsequent freeze warning scheduled from 2 a.m. to 8 a.m. on Tuesday. These low temperatures can have significant impacts, including the potential for frost and freezing conditions that may harm crops and sensitive vegetation.

To mitigate these risks, it is advisable to take precautionary measures. Protecting tender plants from the cold is recommended, as well as planning for extra time to defrost vehicle windshields in the affected areas.
