Have Black, white and red oaks as well. I can say looking out my widows that the oaks have dropped ~20% of their leaves. Was barely any drop a week ago and the change this week has been dramatic. My damn bradford pear is still hanging tough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically east of the mountain doesnt radiate well and west does up higher spots around here. Lots of freezes in the lower elevations, gets down to like 350’ NE corner of town, but even RT 12/ Valley in west sterling, which is like 420-500 feet has had several frosts/freezes. Expand I always wonder how Hunch at 1300’ radiates so well. He must be in a lower spot between hills . It never makes sense to me . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
