Frost Threatens New York Crops

Upstate New York farmers fought late spring frost with smudge pots buses and helicopters to save crops valued at over 100 million from freezes that hit the northeast. An industry spokesman estimated 15 to 20 percent of New York State grapes damaged by May 1 and May 11 frosts. a sub 29 degree low could wipe out a 25 million dollar crop in western and central New York. Temperatures dipped to 20 at Syracuse as cool air spread from Maine to Indiana and south to West Virginia. Some western New York farmers used helicopters at 100 dollars an hour to keep frost away. straw coverings and water sprinkling protected berries. New record lows were logged in Pittsburgh Scranton Binghamton Albany Charleston and other northern cities with widespread subfreezing readings.
