Frost two days running here in south central Kansas. Temps dipped then rose, then dipped again, never staying cold for very long at a time. Haven"t noticed any damage as of yet. Lowest recorded at the airport hourly was 28º.

Our average frost free date is April 9th, so this really set the averge back I expect.

Snow in North Centeral Indiana this morning. Went to bed about 3:00 AM and the ground was white. Was gone when I got up this morning. It is going to be interesting to see what this corn that was up about 2" high looks like in the morning.

Delbert -
I'm down here outside of Tecumseh. We had a LIGHT frost and 30*F. Covered the wife's flowers last night - just in case. Could be worse, though - heard some of the guys in Michigan and Ohio got several inches of snow.

Well, i had seen some posts where they said they planted their tomatoes and other stuff way before Memorial Day! OOOFF!! Down here in Western PA., near Pittsburgh, the going rule is: Plant those things that frost affects after Memorial Day, not before! We had 2-3 inches of snow on Sunday morning! Anybody here that had their tomatoes in the ground might have to get new plants! If the snow and frost didn't kill them, they're mighty lucky! by: Rustyj
