| episode_narrative | A record cold arctic air mass overspread eastern West Virginia overnight on the 9th and 10th, dropping temperatures into the mid teens to lower 20s. These temperatures came on the heels of an above normal winter season. Warm temperatures in late March allowed apple and peach blossoms to reach critical bloom stage about 1 week ahead of schedule. Significant, but not total, kills of peaches and Red Delicious apples were noted. In general, the apple crop sustained 50 percent damage, but the peach crop kill range from 60 to 90 percent. Berries also sustained large kills.Some of the notable damaged acres included: Berkeley Co (WVZ052), 8500 acres; Hampshire Co (WVZ050), 4000 acres; Jefferson Co, 1700 acres. |
