I got this as part of a newsletter from BBC weather

Frost Hollows - Find out which parts of the UK are particularly prone to frost.

I think that frost hollows can be very localised. On my allotment which lies in a slight valley with a stream running by the potatoes can get 'nipped off' by the frost even when other crops in local fields and my backgarden which are slightly higher remain untouched

The frost tends to run down slopes and then when it hits an obstacle, such as a fence, lodge against it. The other side of the fence is often frostfree. It's well worth taking note of where frost lies in the garden during the winter and then you can be very careful what you plant in frost susceptible areas in the spring.
