Frost Warning for NY and NJ

NY - Ulster and areas around
NJ - Sussex and areas around

We are ok in Bergen but others should check the weather

Wow, thanks Rich, I'm in Morris County.

General question: what is the limit for overnight lows for a potted fig? I've always adhered to 50 or up. I have a temporary greenhouse up, but I'm sure there's a difference between established potted trees and rooted cuttings.

A farmer around the corner always told me to expect frost up till May 15 - but who knows? Maybe even later.

Asparagus is finally up and harvested the first bunch last night. A good sign.

Time to plan for snow on July 4th? Must be the start of the new ice age.

Mine have been out for weeks. Anything over 38 without frost is ok for figs coming out of dormancy however I think over 50 at night for my new plants is good.
