Eric Krewson:
Got down to 36 here last night, I covered my plants but it looks like the wind blew all night and it didn't frost, gonna' be colder tonight.
Hawkdancer:
Might be able to plant a few things in about 10 days or so. Got some arrow type shrubs and ground cover plants ordered. Should get some early peas in the ground next week. Going for mostly big container planting this year, going to spread and till in some ashes from the fireplace and the shop heater.

Had sleet come down around midnight but yes wind blew kept frost away. Tonight will be the test. If clouds hand in we may not se frost but if it clears it will freeze solid for sure here in Tenn. Got stuff wrapped and covered. Never took tomatoes and squashes out of skinning shed. Feels like middle October outside right now. It went from 68 to 50 last evening in 30min or so, in an hour it was in low 40's.

31 here in N/W Bama this morning, heavy frost.
My neighbor has a vacation house on Dolphin Island, he called me from there late yesterday to see if were going to have frost and if I could go over to his house and cover up his 11 tomato plants. He said he had a lot of 5 gal buckets in his shop but he didn't, I made newspaper pirate hats to cover the his plants when I ran out of buckets.

24 to 25 here this morning.
