Just spoke with my friend in FL--90's! She said it's July weather down there, but will be cooling off this weekend---yeah, down to the 80's!
Today's Weather in Your Garden - 54
34 and clear. Brrrr.
burrr is right... 34 here too... going up to 51
29 here and jack made an appearance
I see lots of frost on roofs.
38 here..... high of only 47???? what??? brrrr is right, but no wind so it doesn't feel that bad.
Yes - big difference when no wind. Pretty day for our hike.
Ahhhh! To hike in the forest, and hear the little whippoorwills “tweeting” in the trees!
(No bears or snakes of course.)
43° /part sun
It was 29 this morn---now it's up to 48--yipee----just got home from a root canal---no pain, just gagged the whole time!
at least 30 last night. Water in a small bucket froze. Reported to be 50 now, but still 'brisk' air.
48 and on/off drizzle. Yuck! An iris still reblooming!
ewwwww, there was white cold stuff on the wind shield this morning! We had to go out and exhume all the dead green bean plants this afternoon. The poor little babies still had little flowers and beans on them. Rest in peace. The garden is officially put to bed for the season, but it is FILLED with pine needles. Oh well, I'll think about that in May!
Going down to 27 tonight here. Brrrrrrr. We have taken our last walk along the road by the lake.
Marilyn - we've gotten lots of calls from our neighbors in FL about the heat wave. Ick.......I'll be wishing we were back up here! The colors were so pretty this afternoon on our walk.
Pine needles make a good mulch. DH has been raking them into a pile to use. Mighty cold to do much outside. Where is Indian summer?
I think it forgot to look at the calender!
Hope it comes along in the next few weeks--this week's weather does not sound great. We will be at the farm most of the weekend babysitting as our son & DIL are going to a wedding in Camden, ME---I was hoping to have the kids outside---not going to happen.
Oh Camden won't be very warm this weekend either, high of 40's but wet from a storm off shore I believe. Makes for a raw weekend on the coast.
it is 29 here right now and i also put most of our garden to bed today - at least all the t-plants - and they have been burnt in the fire pit
41 now... going to 43... rain for the next few days
Man it's raw out there! Feels like late November.
39 and overcast. A Noreaster on the way.
it looks cold out there - cleaning up the rest of the garden today and hopefully putting a big dent in the bulbs before the rain gets here.
- Great! My 4' Virginia Sweetspire came yesterday evening in PERFECT condition from Oregon. If I plant it now It may get trashed from the wind, if I plant it later it stays a few more days in the pot...
44°, W NE12mph, overcast.
Started raining here, 46 currently the low was 43
37 & breezy I hate 'breezy' when we are going to fly.

Ouch!
That is too cold, too early.
Oh, Yuck---this is a year from h--l! What happened to warm, sunny days of fall? It's very dreary here, but am taking DH to the orchard to get some Baldwins---WC---leave the plant---it'll be fine---you can plant next week when it's SUPPOSED to be back in the 60s.
Yeah I know, I'm not planting it, it's better off nice and dry for now, and so am I (lol!). I'll be happy if they give me 50°s and let me keep it for awhile, I still got tulips coming!
Allison just texted me...it's snowing where she is.
My condolences :(
Pixie I think I beat you!!!... not happy

YUK!! I have no words only sympathy.
Ugh!!!!!!!!!
Now here too - mixed in with the rain.
Awe, sorry! It's partly sunny here but the good news is.... we at hit 40 today!!
this is truly nuts!!!
It's gonna be a loooooong winter. (sigh)
No wonder that everyone is popping out of the ground.
Happy October! Although we did get an Oct. 4th snowstorm in '87---I went through my gardening journals, & found that winter was not so bad. Either that, or I had a better attitude!
Wow! No sticking here, but my wife came home with snow on the car and said the roads were bad.
