LAKE COUNTY – If you couldn't resist planting tomatoes or other tender annuals this weekend, be prepared for the possibility of frosty mornings the next few days and take precautions.

The National Weather Services (NWS) in Sacramento is warning of a cold storm moving towards Lake County Monday and Tuesday which will bring unsettled weather with the possibility of thunderstorms and hail – and even tornadoes in some Central Valley areas.

Snow levels on Monday night will drop to 3,000 feet with the west winds 10 to 20 miles per hour with temperatures in the low 40s, according to NWS.

On Tuesday, NWS says there's a slight chance of thunderstorms and unsettled weather - but lows should remain in the upper 30s.

But the Weather Channel is predicting that temps will drop near freezing on Monday night and below freezing on Tuesday night.

So, just in case, take precautions and cover any tender plants and get your ice scraper back out.
