Oh the weather outside is frightful — enough to kill off Christmas trees. Yuletide firs are dying from a severe drought that’s plagued parts of the Northeast for weeks — with some farmers losing 25% of this year’s crop and predicting a future shortage, according to WBZ-TV. “They’re all yellow on the inside. The needles are falling off,” said Chris Moran, who runs Vandervalk Farm in Mendon, Massachusetts. “Without water we can’t grow anything.” Dry weather killed roughly 500 of his 2,700 Christmas tree seedlings — fragile, 1-foot-tall babies — after they were planted past spring, he said.
