Yeah, we had snow flurries all day yesterday and a frost hard enough to do some killing here in mid-Michigan.  Global warming?

Yep, I'm concerned of my apple trees again, this year.  With blossoms out, we had frost again yesterday.  Hopefully, it wasn't too harsh.  Glad to see a bit of sun today though.  Hear that tomorrow starts back a warming trend!  Believe it when we see it....

Half eye the theory of global warming is that it makes weather more random and have increased extremes as in hotter in summer and colder in winter.  It does not just mean its hotter than normal all year long.    I think that is what DP meant by global warming

It was 25 at my house the other morning...I had two apple trees with blossoms out, that i wrapped each with a tarp, not sure if it will help or not. I sure hope we don't go apple-less again this year! I also covered my strawberries.

where ya at in N. MI half eye?

cool, i've done quite a bit of snowmobiling up there...I also travel the NLP and UP for work, so it's nice to find some trad or primative archery guys around to stump shoot or BS with while i'm up there for work.
