    Default Another Frost last night

    I'm sure I'll soon be seeing the headline "Warmest May Ever" splashed around the liberal press, as we suffered through yet another mid May frost in CENTRAL KENTUCKY.

    We had a hard freeze Saturday morning with the local temp at 26*.

    Been here almost 14 years, never seen a frost in MAY, must be global warming is all I can say.
    Whats next? Snow in June?

    Ive heard its the solar minimum causing it.

    I personally think the poles have shifted around.

    Either way, things have changed weatherwise.
    Proverbs 29:2, "...when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn."

    Acts 4:12
    ,
    "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved."

    Hebrews 13:8
    , "Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever."

    Revelation 3:11, "Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown."

    Matthew 28:20, "...I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen."

    I suspect that’s a factor. But last year we had a freeze April 29th.. This year it’s 2 weeks later.
    The change is progressing, and it’s not “warming”. At least not near here.

    Last night was not so bad but we are looking at the next 3-4 days of having hard freezes overnight...Pretty normal for here , I usually wait until right around Memorial day to plant anything that is susceptible. That is just nuts down in Kentucky for sure.

    Won't know until Wednesday about my cabbage and cauliflower but the peach tree's blossoms all got cooked.
    But, the apple seems to be holding on

    Frost for Kentucky in May!! Condolences are in order. My brother in Birmingham says, except for the tornado alerts, the current weather in the Magic City is not too bad. In the upper Midwest, even with incessant 20's and 30's lows, I'm pretty sure my wood pile is hefty enough to last until next winter.
