Frosty May Morning

Posted: 03 May 2011 07:18 AM

Clear skies and low dew points helped temperatures drop to well below freezing over a good portion of Iowa this morning. It is not that exceptional to have this cold of weather for the 3rd of May as we are just now getting out of the period where we would expect our last frost of the season. The good news is that our weather has been mostly dry recently allowing some field work to be done, but without warmer temperatures, the crops will not grow.
