Cold air to trigger frost, freeze across interior Northeast as autumn chill takes hold
With the middle of October just days away and the warmth that highlighted the past weekend now a distant memory, it's time to refresh the apple cider and pumpkin spice lattés. Autumn weather will return in earnest this week, with a noticeable chill arriving. A frost and freeze capable of ending the growing season are expected on Thursday night.
Gardeners across central New York, much of Pennsylvania and central New England should harvest or cover sensitive plants ahead of the freeze risk. Prior frosts and freezes have already ended the growing season over the northern tier.
Highs in the 80s F that persisted in the Upper Midwest last weekend and the coastal Northeast earlier this week have now been replaced by a colder pattern advancing from Canada. The pattern will progress and escalate into crisp and cool Canadian air through the end of the week.
Tomato plants in the Pittsburgh area will need to be brought inside with frost possible tonight
Here comes fall and it is packing a punch. Tomato plants in the Pittsburgh area will need to be brought inside with frost possible tonight.
Aware: Frost Advisories have been posted for many communities for tonight. More will be posted on Friday morning
Highs today were hit at midnight last night, coming in at 65°. And temperatures will be kind of all over the place today. We will see morning lows dipping to the mid to low 50s this morning.
We will then see afternoon temperatures hitting the low 60s with sunny skies. Those clear skies will allow temperatures to really plunge in the overnight hours with the dry and cool air mass that is now in place. Our daily low will be hit just before midnight tonight; I have Pittsburgh at 45° at that time.

First Alert Weather: Tracking areas of frost Thursday morning
ROCHESTER, N.Y. – Much cooler air in place, along with high pressure building in will lead to a chill to the air for the short term. Some frost is likely the further you go away from Lake Ontario. This means we’ll have a fairly high likelihood of frost south of the Thruway early Thursday morning. Frost Advisories are posted for Genesee, Wyoming and Livingston Counties, along with the Southern Tier. If you have plants outdoors that won’t tolerate the cold, you should think about bringing them in for the season! Friday morning will be another chilly morning, with areas of frost likely away from the lake. Aside from the frost, we’ll see a mostly sunny sky on Thursday and Friday, with highs in the 50s on Thursday and warming into the mid 60s on Friday.
