28 degrees last night (ocean tempered, colder inland), 24 tonite.
Supposed to be under 32 at night for almost the next whole week.
I may get home today to put an extra blanket of mulch on tender things that are up that the deer haven't already eaten. (most things recover) Poppies leaves look awful, like frost damage, but they endure Winter partially exposed. At least we have nothing blossoming that would lose blossoms or fruit due to the cold. Not far enough along into Spring yet, here. (Mass.)
