Snow insulates young apple trees in cold tests
The Horticulture Division of Canada’s Department of Agriculture reports snow acts as insulation for young apples. At Central Experimental Farm during a nine day January 1957 cold spell, soil under one inch of soil with nine inches of snow stayed 28F while air was 12F, a 16 degree difference. Without snow, soil fell to 12F, showing 40 percent insulation. The effect diminishes to about 15 percent in milder winters, with average soil at 21F.
