Ooff
Scheduled for November. Last week of on a 2 day trip. Love Florida for that reason
cold rain off and on next 7 days. we need it. typical fall weather pattern.
Heaviest rain weāve had since last year.
the st. john river is up 6ft. in just 1 week. it takes a lot of rain to bring it up that much.
NOAA predicts a warmer winter in the Northeast this winter. While I like the prediction, I hope we donāt have cold spring (again).

@SMC_zone6, @Johnthecook, @galinas, @JinMA, @jcguarneri, et al,
I still have my sweet peppers fruiting outside. Past night was a close call, we had some frost on the windshield, but they survived.
Same here. Frost on windshields but no visible damage on plants. Nothing below 40F in the 10 day forecast. My apples will have time to ripen.
My chili peppers continue to produce and are flowering still
My peppers are still pumping out. With this virus a warmer milder winter would be nice. Butternuts Iām letting stay on vine for a little longer. They get sweeter the longer they stay on. This drought hopefully will break soon.
I still have a couple of watermelons on the vines. I will let them go on as long as possible.
We got soaked on Fri -Sat early am. Ton of rain in that period of time.
Scattered frost in Kentucky, on Friday night, but didnāt hurt any of my plants except green figs dropped. Tomatoes not harmed.
And
have a hellebore bloom out alreadyā¦usually bloom Thanksgiving through April.
I wonder why the hellebore is doing that?
I also have a community garden plot about a mile from my house thatās frosted a few times already. Itās down closer to the river and in a less urban part of town.
Freezing rain and late spring snowstorms are becoming the normā¦ugh. Dec/Jan have been no problemā¦Feb/March are the worst monthsā¦and even early April is becoming a nail biter.
Helleborus niger ā¦is the earliest blooming speciesā¦itās only 2 or 3 weeks early, and the cold in September probably made it think it was November!
Bird bath is frozen this morning. Outside weather gauge shows 34F right now. Temp isnāt going very far today.
Havenāt really paid attentionā¦this looks like a lot of snow for this time of year. Model could be way off.
we had a week of that in early oct. but it rebounded. weāve had a lot of frosts but i know people still growing potted plants outside. they just brought them in when frosts hit. mid 50ās here today.
Get used to it,according to Farmerās Almanac, your area is only one with below average temps and above average precip in the whole nation for winter 2020/21.
Kentucky is close enough that weāll get some of it but weāre more likely to get a yo-yo effect.
