...ISOLATED AREAS TO SEE FIRST FREEZE...

A chilly morning is expected for southwest and south-central New 
Mexico Thursday morning with the coolest air of the season so far.
Dry air, light winds, and clear skies will set the stage for 
rapid cooling starting after midnight. This pattern will allow 
sheltered, low-lying areas to cool to near or just below the 
freezing mark early in the morning before warming again shortly 
after sunrise. Agricultural interests in known cold regions should
take precautions to protect plants from freezing temperatures.
