Finding Ulysses

It’s time to get out the seedlings you’ve planted inside and harden them off, giving them exposure to some wind and some strengthening sunlight. Bring out your container plants too, and put them on the back stoop.

Nighttime temperatures won’t go down anywhere close to the freezing point at any time in the predictable future. Through Wednesday, the temperatures even at dawn will be in the 40s.

We may have a storm coming today, but it won’t be a late snowstorm like we had last year. That still could happen, and we ought to have a few more nights of frost, so watch the forecasts, but we’ve crossed a threshold in the last week. The time for green is here.
