I understand why Zimmy sent us an inch of snow Sunday night --- he was jealous of our green grass and wanted to cover it up.  But a low of 25 on Monday night?  Really?

It's hard to tell what got damaged by the freeze, but I'm willing to guess.  Our alpine strawberries, blooming long before our June strawberries, were definitely nipped --- the centers of their flowers have turned black.  These small plants aren't our main strawberry crop, and the alpine strawberries will put out new flowers, so it's no big deal.

I expected the onions I set out prematurely to be injured, but they looked just fine, as do our early peas.  I can only guess about our fruit trees, but based on my critical temperature chart, I'd say this freeze probably just did a little early thinning.  Only the nectarine flowers that were fully opened will be completely killed, and there are flowers yet to unfurl even on that precocious tree.

As long as Zimmy keeps his cold weather in Ohio after this, we should be in good shape.
