The episode as NWS MFR wrote it up.
A Frost Warning was issued for the above four zones this night. Unfortunately, the warning for zones ORZ024 and ORZ026 was issued erroneously, as Frost Warnings for these zones do not begin until May 1st. However, all the low temperatures in the four zones that night were mostly in the 30s, so frost probably did develop. However, no reports were received.
