APRIL 15TH MAY BE TAX DAY, BUT FOR SOME IT'S ALSO TEMPERATURE DAY. DAVID CRAFT IS WITH THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN ALBUQUERQUE. HE TELLS US SOME PARTS OF THE DUKE CITY, SUCH AS THE NORTHEAST HEIGHTS, ARE GETTING READY TO SAY GOODBY TO FREEZING TEMPERATURES.
HE SAYS THE MEDIAN LAST FREEZE FOR ALBUQUERQUE IS APRIL 15TH, BUT FOR CORRALES IT'S MAY 1ST. CRAFT SAYS IT'S DUE TO THE ELEVATIONS, WHERE COLD AIR SINKS IN THE RIVER VALLEYS, STRETCHING OUT THE POSSIBLE DATES FOR "LAST" FREEZES.
CRAFT SAYS IT WOULD BE ADVISABLE TO BRING IN ANY PLANTS YOU WERE TEMPTED TO PUT OUTSIDE DURING THE RECENT PERIOD OF WARMER WEATHER.
