Freeze warning frost advisory stock image file photo

Another morning forecast calling for frigid temps has prompted the National Weather Service to issue a freeze warning and frost advisory for the second time in 24 hours in East Idaho.

The weather service said Thursday morning's temperatures will dip to between 28 and 32 degrees in the Atomic City, Mud Lake, Idaho National Laboratory, Craters of the Moon, Idaho Falls, Ammon, Rigby, Rexburg and St. Anthony areas, all of which are under the freeze warning.

Temps could fall to between 32 and 36 degrees on Thursday morning in the Pocatello, Chubbuck, Blackfoot, Shelley, Firth, Fort Hall, American Falls, Aberdeen, Raft River, Declo, Burley, Rupert, Heyburn, Paul and Oakley areas, all of which are under the frost advisory.

The weather service said about Thursday morning's temps: "Frost and freeze conditions will kill crops (and) other sensitive vegetation and possibly damage unprotected outdoor plumbing."

Below-freezing temps are definitely possible Thursday morning in the parts of East Idaho not under the freeze warning or frost advisory, especially the higher elevations where lows in the 20s could occur.

A freeze warning and frost advisory were issued for Wednesday morning as well, when lows dipped below freezing in East Idaho.
