Snow Damages Texas Is Good For Others
AP dispatch notes winter weather spared most regions while Texas suffered severe fruit losses. A late February freeze killed about 15 percent of Texas trees, nearly wiping out the state’s citrus crop and wrecking peach and plum yields worth millions. California and Arizona citrus losses were lighter. Florida citrus and grapefruit remain strong. In the Northwest and Pacific coast, drought relief via rains improved soil moisture. Wyoming gains moisture from snow while livestock fears rise.
