Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeAfter a very mild January that encouraged earlier-than-normal deciduous orchard blooming, daytime high temperatures in Interior Central California on the 15th were much below normal following a dry cold-frontal passage. Temperatures on the night of the 15th and morning of the 16th plunged to the mid to upper 20s throughout the Central and South San Joaquin Valley. Many agricultural reporting stations were less than 27F with coldest locations less than 25F. Temperature durations less than 28F exceeded 6 hours in several locations. Early deciduous nut blooms and fruit-set were damaged by the cold air despite grower attempts at freeze mitigation. Temperatures moderated on the morning of the 17th but still dropped to as low as 28F in the coldest locations continuing the damage on area agriculture.
