Record-setting arctic blast hits Europe, stunning spring crops
Strange Sounds ^ | 4/5/22

A historically intense April cold snap has descended on Europe, with temperatures plummeting to 20 to 30 degrees (11 to 18 degrees Celsius) below normal. The record-breaking cold has triggered harsh frosts, shocking early-blooming plants and crops in several countries.

The unseasonably cold weather, which arrived over the weekend, follows warmer-than-normal temperatures in previous weeks that caused a rapid greening of flora — particularly in France’s agricultural regions.

“It’s still difficult to evaluate the [damage] caused by the frost, but orchards (‘stone fruits’ such as plum trees, apricot, cherry) and vineyards have been impacted,” Jean-Marc Touzard, director of research at the French National Research Institute for Agriculture, Food and Environment (INRAE), said in an email.

So the might starve before they get a chance to freeze from lack of natural gas.

Well, early this morning, not counting Alaska, I counted eight or nine states getting snow.

Places in ND, SD, IA, MN, WI, and MI were really getting it.

They were expecting 12-16 more inches of snow, and 35mph wind in parts of MN and WI.

I just chalked it up to erf being “a-symptomatic”, not being vaccinated, or in need of a fifth globo-fauci jab.

Joe Bastardi, at weatherbell.com , said another cold snap coming during the 3rd week of April which will endanger tender crops.
Global warming is a mirage which exists only on selective computers owned by Climate Change alarmists.
Central States and Eastern States mostly afflicted during 3rd week of April for cold weather,
while mid-West and some Southern States will experience violent weather with rain.
Gunna be a crapy gardening season !
