This kind of transition weather is the worst. Do I bring all the container plants in or leave them out? I've moved some things closer/close to the house and covered, albeit with light protection only. Most everything in-ground is too big to cover so it's live or die.
It's already 43テつーF out in the open -- I ventured outside and covered a few more things I'd already brought to the patio for protection where it is currently 47テつーF.The moon was gorgeous in the chilly sky -- I didn't even need to turn any lights on.

And now the Weather Service says it's not gonna happen, Sunflower13.
Rain & cold. We are skidding, almost out of control!
The days of record-high temperatures in the 90's just 2 weeks ago, seem distant. It didn't make it to 60テつーf yesterday. The WS tells us that it was the first day with such a cool afternoon since June 21st. Honestly, that tells you more about our Junes than late September here in the inland NW, yes?
The recent storm spun into western Montana and into Canada; where it came back south again. This morning, that storm is hitting the eastside of the Cascades. It is good, I suppose. Not terrible rain and it was the Cascades' eastside where the terrible fires were this summer.
Tomorrow morning, the thermometer will drop to the 30's, we are told. (Some locations in the 30's this morning!) Last time with those cold morning lows: May 24th.
