If the warm weather over the last few weeks fooled you into attempting any spring gardening (it’s been over 70 six times already in Albuquerque), be prepared to cover your plants this weekend.
The National Weather Service is forecasting temperatures well below freezing Saturday night/Sunday morning:
weekend freeze
Don’t act so surprised. The average last freeze date in Albuquerque, according to the National Weather Service, is April 13. Last year, our last freeze came April 3. In 2010 and ’11, it spilled over into the first couple of days of May.
