Frost again???

16 years ago

So, do you think we will really have "patchy frost" as they're predicting? I have a patio FULL of tender seedlings, and blueberry blossoms out at the garden that I do not want to lose. . .I covered everything last time and all was fine, but this seems very iffy. Guess I'd better be safe rather than sorry. . .

When are they talking about that? Tonight? Both of the sources i ck regularly say 41 and 38, so i won't worry for here. I guess maybe if you're closer to the mountains...

Tonight. Foothills, and there are pockets that frost all over the place out at my little garden in the sticks. :) It's always several degrees cooler there.
