Thanks to our friend, meteorologist Charlie Neese, for these images… he writes:
“James,
I wanted to share with you a couple of pics of my backyard from this weekend. The record cold of a couple of weeks ago really did a number on the leaves here. As you know, they were growing well when the cold hit. After that, they quickly turned crunchy and brown. As I understand it, the dead leaves have to drop before new buds will form. That means we probably have a few more weeks of brown before it looks like spring again…
Keep up the great work down there!
Charlie Neese
