Notification for Frost Tomorrow

DAK a good way to get an automatic notification when there's frost or ice due the following morning?

I've tried IFTTT notifications and following the local gritter twitter feed, but wondering if there's a more reliable way to automatically remind me when there's going to be a frost and I need to cover the car windscreen!

Can you not use a link in IFTTT to Weather Underground for when tomorrow's forecast falls below (say) 2c and then send an email?

Just tried that and you will get an email around midnight for the day after - so an email Wednesday night to advise to put the cover on Thursday evening as it will be frosty on Friday morning.

Belated thanks @AF62. I could use that approach to put it into my Todoist to do list that runs my life these days. :roll:
