I’m trying to figure out how Ray had the same amount of pack as me before last night.

Keep on blockin I ain’t shovelin

Hopefully a Bruce Armstrong block and not a Will Campbell

Finally. Let’s freshet.

Happy Anniversary 33 years ago right now

29.7° -SN Coating so far

You keep posting charts with near neutral indices

Sure. 2023 sucked. Anytime you’re wiping out entire apple crops that’s a brutal late freeze. But I don’t recall many issues in previous years. The problem with peaches is a lot of the varieties you get in stores aren’t late blooming or cold hardy enough. So either the buds get fried from -15F in winter or they bloom too early and the flowers die in the spring. 3 of my 4 peach trees are on the late end of bloom timing and the other is more mid…Contender, Intrepid, Challenger, and Redhaven. Stone fruit in general are a PITA to grow.

It’s been all locked up in the pack for months too…so deeper soil has been drying out and is ready to quickly absorb what we have back in. Once everything starts greening up it’s going to get sucked up quickly

8”ish

I will say there’s a lot of fruit growers well SW of here that have flowers in bloom that are going to lose most of their crops…especially peaches. I suppose that’s one benefit up here of tempering all of the warm airmasses until May. The long pack and mud season keeps the soils cooler and trees dormant too.

Oh ok…thought that was through tomorrow. Only expecting 1-2” here.

What is that? I’ll take the under.

Dry af up here. Can’t believe I’m saying this, but hopefully we get drenched this spring. This little bit of water from snow melt won’t last long.

20.4° Feels brutal after the past week

I’m sure that tiny light blue blob will work its way toward the NE and social media will be flooded with “so much for CC” posts again.

MetHerb?

It’s winter in Florida too. You average in March what I average in April…and I don’t consider April a winter month here.

Yeah…should be red up here

Because it’s not a winter month down there

Gotta make sure they use it all to prevent those budget cuts

Loving the tenor this month
