The title of this blog might be a bit harsh, but after that nice stretch of weather forced the growing season to begin, this weekend's cold weather may have some rethinking early plantings. I ran into many folks on Sunday who said they had tried everything aside from digging up their plants and bringing them inside. Despite their efforts, the record low temperatures still took a bite out of their plants. It's hard to say if/how several nights of extreme temperatures will impact the plants' growth and development. I suppose only time will tell.
Here's the records set over the weekend. Some of the previous records date back to the 60's and 70s. So it's been a while since we've had it that cold, this late.
LOW TEMPERATURE RECORDS
Lynchburg 22 degrees (Old record: 24 set in 1970)
Danville 22 degrees (Old record: 26 set in 1961)
Hope you had a nice weekend. --Brent
