Ah, Spring in Colorado ...

Today has varied between blustery, sunny, overcast, clement, snowing (a few flakes, but distinct) and beaming. And now ...

THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN DENVER HAS ISSUED A FREEZE WARNING...WHICH IS IN EFFECT FROM MIDNIGHT TONIGHT TO 8 AM MDT SUNDAY.

LOW TEMPERATURES TONIGHT ACROSS NORTHEASTERN COLORADO WILL MAINLY BE IN THE UPPER 20S TO LOWER 30S. MANY LOCATIONS WILL SEE TEMPERATURES SLIGHTLY BELOW FREEZING FOR A FEW HOURS.

A FREEZE WARNING MEANS SUB-FREEZING TEMPERATURES ARE IMMINENT OR HIGHLY LIKELY. THESE CONDITIONS WILL KILL CROPS AND OTHER SENSITIVE OUTDOOR VEGETATION. IF POSSIBLE...MOVE PLANTS INDOORS TO PROTECT THEM FROM THE COLD. OTHERWISE COVER THEM WITH NEWSPAPERS OR BLANKETS.

Sounds like it's time to move the new plants up closer to the house and cover them up ...
