    Thanks, that is interesting.  For that 20 year period, our average last freeze is April 11.  Assuming a similar comparison in the fall, that's at least an extra month of growing season here.  Not trivial, especially in the fall, but I'll work those numbers another time.  I think the difference in the fall will be even more...it's hard to get to freezing when the LI Sound is still near 60°.  Our first fall freeze is sometimes a couple of weeks later than the center of the island, but I don't think there is much difference in the spring.

    at my old location, 1.2 miles NW of my current location, the average last freeze from 2017 to 2025 was 4/14...earliest was 4/2 in 2019 and latest was 4/26 in 2024

    That's historic even by AK standards.   Canada too-very cold but very little of it made its way into the US so the cold/snowy March calls didn't work out.

    Maybe it’s historic, maybe it’s not. How do we know what the weather was 300 years ago?

    Fairbanks AK -24 this AM 18th day this month below -20.   Brutal month for AK and much of Canada while most of the US roasts

    Good. Let them freeze. It’s Alaska. It’s supposed to be cold 

  5. 29 this morning. 

    Hard freeze expected again Friday night and Saturday high around 42. Last freeze here is usually end of March/early April. So figure a few more weeks before growing season begins

    Its the trade off for more snow

    Yea. Also mid summer time we have fewer days interrupted by thunderstorms. They often stay to the west all day. It evens out.

    I said this about flawed premise:

    And the concept of "wins the debate" is a flawed premise.  What matters in science are facts and the truth.  It does not care about who "wins" or "loses."

    I was not talking about the definitions from the norm or anomalies.  I was talking about the idea of "win" or "lose" and that concept bring brought into a scientific discussion.  So your reply is a non-sequitur.
