4/29/2008 Happy Birthday Nancy!
Frost on the garden! Save the tomatoes!
Happy Birthday Nancy!!!
The temperature at 5:30 AM was 34ºF and the skies were clear and there was no wind. A light frost covered the ground, especially the hay on the garden. The rain gauge had 0.08" of rain, mostly form a shower that started yesterday at about 4:45 PM as I was arriving home fro work. Hopefully all my tomatoes will survive the frost. Nancy covered them with hay so any damage will hopefully not be fatal.
The low today was 32ºF and the high was 61ºF.
4/28/2008
There was 0.17" of rain in the gauge at 5:30 and the temperature was 47ºF under partly cloudy skies with a breeze of 1-3 mph gently pushing around the cooler air. The forecast high for today is 61º F and the low for tonight is forecast 38ºF. We are often a little lower than forecast here, so I am hoping that we don't have any frost since I have already planted 80 tomatoes. A temperature in the low 40's will be acceptable.
The low for today was 36ºF and the high was 64ºF.

Sky at 10 AM
At 5:30 AM the temperature was 61ºF and it was raining. It had been raining what sounded like a slow steady rain for awhile. I checked my watch the first time I heard it, but I've now forgotten what time it was. The rain gauge had 0.16" in it at 5:30 AM. There were no winds at 5:30 AM and I wasn't awoken by thunder so I don't think we had any thunderstorms. At 10:00 AM the temperature is 54ºF and the wind is 8-12 mph, so it has cooled off since 5:30 AM and it is forecast to 70ºF for the high today. The sky is beginning to clear, and the sun is peeking out occasionally. Nancy saw a Rose Breasted Grosbeak at our feeders this morning, the first we've seen this spring.

A mild night with a temperature of 51º at 5:30 AM. The sky was clear and the winds were clam.
