If the clouds clear, there is supposed to be a hard freeze tonight.
If that happens, it will mean the end of growing season.
If the hard freeze doesn't happen tonight, a killing freeze will still come this week. Either tomorrow or the next day...
The last, faint breaths - lingering from Summertime - will soon be gone.
************************
Despite it being a cloudy, rainy day again today (with a high only in the 40's), I made a point to spend some time outside on the deck with the last of my Summer blooming flowers. I will hate to see this pretty purple petunia claimed by the cold. After a week or so in fall dormancy, she's now just starting to bloom heavily again.
