Central PA Spring 2026 Discussion/Obs Thread
mahantango#1 replied to Voyager's topic in Upstate New York/Pennsylvania
Yea I was talking about field corn and soybean planting. As far as planting my garden. I planted my potatoes about 2 weeks ago. There not up yet. Just planted stringbeans and peas e days ago. I should have some sweet corn planted by now, but that ground is too cold yet. And now just had .88 rain last night. And my garden is in the bottom land next to a creek. Last night during the thunderstorm my garden was basically underwater. If it would be a sunny day today and temps in the 70's I could get in the garden later today. But with a completely overcast sky and cool temps that won't be the case today. Hopefully it warms up soon and stays. -

My rain rate was 2.03in. hr. during the thunderstorm last night. It's been awhile since I think last July that my rain rate was that high. -

31.6 this morning with frost and ice on the vehicles. This upcoming warmup can't get here soon enough. Covering up plants to protect them from frost is starting to get old. -

Your going to Alaska, right? Maybe you should seek a residence there to escape most of the heat. Anyway It might not be that hot here this summer. -

We have certainly been surprised and truly grateful at the overwhelming support, concern and prayers on behalf of our family. We greatly appreciate the people who come each summer to our orchard! It was a pleasure to have CBS 21 news come and interview us concerning the impact of the April 21st freeze. The CBS team was both genuine and professional as they assembled the points of interest for the news segment. The value of the potential crop loss, as reported, was accurate. As with most farms, every spring brings fresh hope for a potentially good year. But as farming is very weather dependent events like frosts, freezes, insects, or markets can really take a toll on expected income, as we well know. However, whether it’s a great year, average year, or poor year, input costs remain the same. This is a management scenario most farms take very seriously as we do, and prepare for it financially through rainy day funds, insurance, diversity in crops, etc. Coping with the emotional aspect of something like this can be difficult and at times discouraging. But regardless weather God choses to prosper us or God choses to shape us through adversity our desire is to honor God in our lives as we move forward. So, as God gives us health and strength we will try again next year (2027) to produce our crops of fresh fruits and vegetables for you, our valued customers! With much love, Your Honey Bear Family and Staff (Including Juliet and Georgia, our granddaughters, who are excited to be old enough to wait on customers next year!) -

Yes I seen that too and there was one in Lebanon County also. Shame as most of these orchards these people own are their only source of income. -

Heard yesterday a local orchard very near me had significant damage from the frost and freeze a few weeks ago. -

KEY MESSAGE 2: Frost/freeze risk Monday night/Tuesday morning over the western and central Alleghenies Almost a slam dunk for a widespread frost for more than half the CWA tomorrow night (N and W) - and a freeze in the nrn mtns. Dewpoints will be 25-30F - just low enough to allow the temps to be able to drop, but not too dry to keep frost away. Confidence in frost is near 100 pct, but for freeze is about 49 pct. Due to increasing confidence, frost advy and freeze warnings seem likely, but the consensus among the regional offices on this (midnight) shift was to allow at least one more forecast cycle for that to happen. -
