WE WON'T BE DOING ANY TREE PRUNING THIS MORNING, THAT'S FOR SURE

A BONE-CHILLING MORNING
Monday, 7:15 AM.  -16 degrees F both downtown and on the back porch.  Wind WSW, calm to light with stronger gusts.  The sky is clear at present. The humidity is 67% and the barometer is trending down, now at 30.72".  The temperature should rise to a more reasonable degree by noon, and warm up from there, but plummet again later in the day on Tuesday.  When I stepped onto the back  porch earlier the floorboards let out a crack like a pistol shot.  Buddy went out for about 30 seconds and returned post-haste.  It is cold over most of the country; frigid in Colorado and in Ohio, even Texas is below freezing this morning (all places where our children and grandchildren live).
   We have a Tree Board meeting this morning, but as cold as it is perhaps not a quorum. In day's gone by cars didn't start in weather like this, but they seldom fail nowadays.  But we won't be going out doing any tree pruning, that's for sure.

  1. Tree pruning is such a delicate task. Its important to choose not only the right time but the right contractor such as Tree Service Brooklyn NY. Thanks for such a great article.
