Title: Warmer Temperatures, Good But ......
Post by: jay on March 17, 2021, 06:51:42 AM
The forecasters are predicting warmer temperatures over the next few days.  We may even hit 70 degrees.

The warmer temps may cause fruit trees to start flowering.  This could be a disaster if we then have a frost in the weeks ahead.

"IF" is one of those words that can't be just tossed around, ;) so I tried to fix your post.  :D
I hope I got it right :laugh: and it doesn't make you angry. >:(

Why would I do such a thing? ???
Because today is only March 17th, St. Patrick's Day!!  8)  And according to weather.gov the average last frost in Youngstown (probably the airport?) is May 18th. a full two months and one day from now.

Heck, on May 9th last year there was snow collecting on every car and covering many garage roofs in my neighborhood. I don't know IF we got frost that day but that's what prompted me to do the google and ended up finding that "last frost" info.  ;D
