We grow them in Connecticut. You just want to wrap them up in the winter time to protect them

Interesting. He says another warm summer but then explicitly predicts the 2nd coldest summer since 2019, and only slightly warmer than 2023. Especially if the heat is out west as he suggests, I think most people will consider that to be one of the coldest summers in recent memory.

I plan to get it! Ive done it with my backyard before, and it's really cool, but sometimes when theres too many details (esp my conifers grow so much each year)...sometimes a simpler, wider landscape is the best choice.

I’m not discounting this event is highly influenced by climate change, but in regards to Pheonix at least some of the temp increase is related to the UHI. I don’t see any reference to that in the data provided. Pheonix pre 1970s isn’t comparable to today. .

Give it a bit and you’ll be able to grow oranges and lemons.

This is fucking cool we do indeed need all four seasons

Need the whole 4 season sequence now

Hopefully we go the 02-03 route instead of a 15-16 redux.

After yesterday’s KSAV record tying high of 89, today’s was only 69, which was just after midnight. It stayed in the 60s through the afternoon along with some clouds much of the day, breezy NE winds, and dewpoints mainly upper 30s to 40 making for a pleasant walk. It’s now down to 56. Tonight’s low is forecasted to be in the upper 40s.

1. How about this? Phoenix had its coolest high in 11 days by a good margin (96) and yet it was still another record high, the 14th of this month! 2. Believe it or not, the next two days’ record highs of 97 are forecasted to be close to being hit. So, two more daily record highs are possible! 3. The morning low was 75. IF it doesn’t cool down to 74 by midnight local time, it would be not only a new record high low for today, it would become the new monthly record high low and the earliest 75 low by far with the current earliest being way out on April 19th! The current record for the day and month is 74, set way back in 1986.

Sunny cold day today. Went to the park and took a pic of a field because i thought this was a cool winter/spring contrast pic.

High of 55, low of 46. 42 degree temp difference between high of yesterday and this mornings low. Picked up .14" this morning. Helped to bring pollen counts down a bit but did nothing for the drought.

They did. ILL!

Agreed. We missed the last storm, which prevented many from exceeding climo snowfall. But we had several decent cold waves and the first warning level snowfall for many in several years.

Classic CNE spring frustration next week

I could grow them in ground here and let them resprout every spring…or leave a nub above ground and cover it with dirt in the fall.

Not that far from the truth. One of my customers grows figs. In Medford.

One of the few times I say, glad we don't live there.

That is how you know it is spring in the northeast. Same plot every year now. Usually mid-week teases you with beautiful weather before the weekend is frigid, windy, and wet.

I’d probably grow figs and pomegranates if I lived down there.

43 today. Warm week ahead and then another shitty weekend
