Counties in the freeze warning zone are Arkansas, Bradley, Cleveland, Desha, Drew, Faulkner, Garland, Grant, Hot Spring, Jefferson, Lincoln, Lonoke, Monroe, Perry, Prairie, Pulaski, and Saline.
The National Weather Service (NWS) says the combination of cold high pressure, a clear sky and near calm winds will create the conditions for the freezing temperatures. For most locations in the area, this is expected to be the first freeze of the season.
Temperatures are expected to drop below freezing in the hours after midnight, bottoming out around or a little after sunrise.
The freezing temperatures will kill crops and other sensitive outdoor plants and vegetation.
