Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeThe combination of an unseasonably cold air mass, clear skies and light winds led to widespread freezing temperatures, along with frost across the mid Hudson Valley, Capital District, the Lake George and Saratoga region, and Mohawk Valley of eastern New York during the early morning hours of Thursday May 1st.||The freeze and frost was particularly damaging to fruit trees, as a previous warm spell in mid to late April led to unusually advanced stages of bloom. Preliminary damage estimates were near 20 million dollars in production losses, mainly for apple and peach orchards across the mid Hudson Valley region.
