night long enough to do much ma
terial damage. The weather bureau,
however, urged precaution with au
tomobile radiators, water lines, etc.
The first part of the cold wave
was to be characterised by cloudy
and unsettled conditions with occa
sional rains. During the latter part,
it was believed that the skies would
clear off. leaving the Valley sus
ceptible to frost.
Schnurbusch stated that should
the temperatures remain below the
freesing point over a long period,
farmers should get in touch with the
county agricultural agent in regard
to pulling citrus from the trees.
This condition may be reached Sun
day morning, according to the fore
cast.
The California citrus belt eras hit
by freesing temperatures Thursday
night and it was expected to be
colder tonight, reports from there
said.
