Early Spring Frost Threat Endangers Fruit Buds
Meteorologists warn 40 to 50 mph winds will descend with daytime heat as the sun shifts, while tonight temperatures drop to the low to mid twenties threatening buds. Horticulturalist Dr. Ross Byers says apples face 10 percent bud loss at 25 degrees and 80 percent at 21 degrees, with peaches more tolerant but still at risk for certain varieties. Bloom remains set for late April, and growers fear additional frosts in the next 14 to 20 days could further damage buds.
