Make up GDD deficit?
Posted: 10 Jun 2013 05:37 AM
The cool start to June has not helped to recover the growing degree day
deficit that has built up so far this growing season. The featured
chart presents the 1 May to 9 Jun GDD departure and then the change in
this value to finish the growing season on 1 Oct. There have been a
few years with a slower start to GDD accumulation and still finish the
season above average. The forecast for this week at least has our
temperatures in the 80s instead of struggling to reach 70 that we have
experienced so far this June.
