Got to 28. Was below freezing for at least 8 hours. Hopefully that puts the grass into hibernation for the winter.

My lowest temp so far was 29 for several hour last Sunday. Thought that would do in my grass. Its still quite green in places, but not growing much. Still one more mow at least, mostly to finish off the leaves.

Another nice elevation dependent night. Mid to upper 30s near Tyson's >400ft and in the 20s in the lower spots just miles away. 36.5 for my low.

 

While elevation played some role, I think Tyson's ever-increasing urban character is also helping.  Its quite a concentration.

I used Tyson's quite broadly.  My readings are pretty much all elevation-related (~470').  I can be bright green and a block away they can have heavy frost.  10 degrees within a mile or so is not uncommon, and there has been no land cover change in decades.  50-100' makes a massive difference.

Localized influences are interesting. Over here there is nothing even remotely resembling an UHI, and no real elevation differences either...everywhere is less than 100 feet. It comes down to proximity to the water, and now far north you are (and soil composition when there is no snow cover). I am in the interior, away from both bays, and far enough north that my temps on nights that radiate well are often as much as 10 degrees colder than places along the bay.
