Spring Temperatures

- Included in Issue:
By:

This is the last installment of our series on spring temperatures for 2018. What a strange year it has been. We started out very cool until mid-April and it didn’t really warm up until early May (Fig. 1). I think every day since then has been over 80F. Although the early spring was much cooler than the last few years, right now we’ve caught up and tracking similar to where we have been for most of this decade. My guess is that harvest times will be about normal this year.
