A Frost Advisory is in effect for part of the area for Thursday morning. We would really love to see what kind of frost you experience around your house. You can either post your pic to our Facebook account (https://www.facebook.com/NWSLouisville/), Twitter account (@NWSLouisville, or https://twitter.com/NWSLouisville), or send an e-mail to here. A frost advisory is issued when widespread frost is expected on area vegetation and grasses, not just roof tops and cars, where frost can occur at slightly warmer temperatures.

Here is a picture of frost flowers, an interesting feature that can form in tall weeds/grasses on cold mornings.

Of course, sometimes car tops can have cool patterns worthy of photos as well, as in this picture.
