Yup,
Finally, winter arrives. We dragged our feet for the past several weeks. Just cleaned out our garage in time to park our cars in there. Whew!!!

We hit 21 degrees in my area of Texas last night. All my fig and pomegranate trees are in ground and have no protection. Hopefully one night of freezing temperatures for 8 hours or so wonât cause too much damage. Celeste fig still had its leaves. They look all brown and wrinkled up now.

32° and snowing pretty hard right now, with a brisk wind out of the south. The ground is almost covered white. So, our first measurable snowfall this season. It got down to 18° this morn, brrr! Coldest temps so far.

Woke up to snow on the ground. First time I seen snow here in December in maybe forever. Itâs actually rare we get snow at all but when we do, itâs usually later in the Winter - closer to Spring. May get those chill hours after all

Here in San Diego county the hot âSanta Anaâ winds blowing west from the deserts abated two days ago but the unusual heat is still present. Daytime temps are in the low 80âs, dew point is stuck around 20°F and humidity is in the teens.

We had our first frost here today. It will again tomorrow too. Thankfully it only stays that way a few hours since it heats up quick here. All of my figs still have figs on them. I wonder if they will ripen? Looks like all my leaves on everything will be gone by next weekend so i intend on spraying the copper/Neem mix next weekend on everythingâŚI have Fertilizer Spikes. I wonder should i use them now? The package says late fall and early springâŚThey are the JOBEâSâŚ

Thatâs crazy. The whole state seems to be stuck under this high pressure dome. 67F here, with zero rain forecasted for the near future.

Maybe 2 inches of snow on the ground around here.

WowâŚsubzero already? I th ink we had 11F or 12F the other morning. No single digits yet. Got to love all that snow. That will probably stick around for the season?
âScratch that⌠just looked at nws here --had 5F this morning. I must be getting use to this because it didnât feel any different. No wonder the car was so frosted over.
GFS has snowstormâish look a week from now.
Had melt this afternoon with lots of sun. I think weâll lose most of our snow this weekend if the temps warm to near 40F.
