Down to 37.7

Light rain when it slows up. Rain/sleet/snow mix when precip picks up or winds gusts.

Most likely under .25"

Latest HRRR says a tenth of an inch or less for most of the area, and it appears that will be the case based on the way radar looks. Just light rain for a couple hours. Frustrating because we really need rain.

Freeze watch tomorrow night. Probably gonna get down to 31 or 30 here. Some people got fooled by the hot weather this week and planted tomato plants. Those people are going to be in trouble tomorrow night.

Need a soaker but nothing in sight.  The big cooldown is 3 days then back into the mid to upper 60's and dry

Glad I got my mowing in yesterday before the cool air came in.  Nice day, got sunburnt and now I got the heat on and I'm freezing lol

As they should be...it is mid/late April not mid/late May.  Not to mention this "chill" was well advertised.  I wait until Memorial Day weekend up this way to do flowers and warmer weather veggies.

I usually plant the warmer weather vegetables during the first few days of May. By then it's usually safe here, but I know you're way up in NW Jersey where you can still get frost in early May. You're wise to wait until at least mid May up there.

Who doesn't have screens in their windows? With no screens, what's the point of windows except for light. All sorts of bugs and critters will be coming right in with the windows open?

I have in some cool weather vegetables. I actually put in the some early girl tomatoes that I don’t care if I loose. But I’m in one of the warmest parts of this forum. I bet they will be fine if it gets to 32 for an hour or two.
