Weather Alert - Freezing Temps Early Saturday Morning

Posted on April 3, 2009 at 6:12 AM

Noticed a weather alert for low temps on Saturday morning to dip below freezing.   This is the result of the high pressure system that is building and clearing out the clouds.   This is a good thing because it will bring much warmer day time temps and some much needed sunshine for the next several days, but it will cause the temps to dip down to historical lows for this time of year early on Saturday.   The only crops I have that are in any danger are the bed of cole crops that I just took the plastic sheeting cover off of (earlier this week).   Before leaving for work today, I am going to drape the plastic sheeting back over the bed and leave it on until it warms up on Saturday morning.   Everything else is either a seed bed or an ultra hardy item (onions).

I have been holding my breath down here as well -- just praying we do not end up with a late artic blast!
