(Des Moines, IA) -- Much of Iowa is under a Freeze Warning for early Saturday, from 1:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m.
"It's the first freeze of the season across much of the area. So overnight tonight into Saturday morning we're going to see temperatures in the upper 20s to low 30s." Says Meteorologist Ashley Bury with the National Weather Service. "It's going to be quite cold for us."
The freeze signals the coming end of the growing season.
"It's dangerous for sensitive plants, bring them in or cover them up." Says Bury. "But, I would say in terms of planting, that should be done in the next week or so because it's going to be getting colder as we go forward from here.
