Not Out Of The Woods Yet

Andrew hauls out more Agribon to cover young tomatoes

We’re not out of the woods yet, according to the forecast.

Temperatures will drop to the low thirties for Saturday and Sunday.  I have to make sure the hatches are batted on the tomato hoophouses.  I knew the low temperatures were coming, thanks to a little thing I like to call “the internet”.  I don’t know how farmers used to do it, but thanks to weather.com I now know that after Sunday I am pretty much in the clear to plant out Peppers, Eggplant and the load of summer veggies.

The last average frost date is probably around the end of April here.  It hasn’t frosted since the middle of March.  Last week it was 88 degrees with an overnight low of 52!  Sunday is supposed to be 52 degrees as the high! With a low of 33.  Is the weather really getting wacky? Or has it always been like this and now I’m just paying attention?

Well, that’s all the news in weather.
