Frost. I went outside at 6:30 and found frost on the vehicles by the house. Temperature at the Monticello airport 12 miles to the north had dropped to 36. The sky had cleared and the wind stopped, so it got even colder in the valley. I walked down to the garden and found a little bit of frost on the outside of the hoop houses, but just water condensation on the inside. All but one of the plants in the hoops had extra covers, but even the uncovered plant survived. This seems to happen every year. I'm glad I didn't have any tomatoes in the ground. Maybe by Monday they will get planted.
