It’s been very hot (and dry) all summer. Usually by the time September rolls around we have started to feel a bit of a nip in the air, and last night it began. This morning when we woke up our thermometer read 1°C (34°F) and when walking Kona, I noticed there was frost on a few plants.
After months and months of higher than normal heat, this dip in temperature felt like a shock, but our normal nighttime low for this date is -3°C (27°F), so in reality, even last night’s drop in temperature was still warmer than what is normal. What we really need is rain, and hopefully the showers forecast for this weekend will actually materialize and lessen our moisture deficit. My pond is about a foot (30cm) lower than it should be.
