Title: caution bad frost warning
Post by: glow777 on April 08, 2007, 14:21:39
Hard to believe at the moment but if you look at metcheck on the 8-14 weather prediction there is a -5 predicted (for my area of derbyshire anyway).

Hopefully theyll change the forecast but that frost will definately wipe out most frost hating plants in unheated greenhouses

ARRRGGGGGHH! Mind you, in your part of the world it's always a bit nippy innit :D

You can fly up the M1 in 30 degree heat in August with the car lid down and not be surprised to hit a snowdrift at Chesterfield roundabout :D
