The warning was in place for Four Corners/Upper Dolores River, Animas River Basin and San Juan River Basin.

“Temperatures have risen above freezing for a majority of the area and will continue to rise. Therefore, the freeze warning will expire at 8 am MDT this morning,” according to the National Weather Service.

What to do if there is a freeze watch or warning

Freeze warnings are issued from May to October (but can be extended if necessary), when low temperatures are expected to be 29-32 degrees. If there is a potential for temperatures to fall into these thresholds, a freeze watch may be issued a few days ahead of time.

According to the NWS, if a freeze warning or watch is issued for your area, there is little you can do to protect plants. If you can move your sensitive plants inside, do so because the freeze will likely kill them, depending on the severity of conditions.
