Re: Weather

I am throwing blankets and beach towels on everything I can. I think
plastic would work if it was just a 24 hour thing.....but I've never
done it. I'd wait on the tomatoes if I were you.

9 inches.... that is  way too much!  Are we suppose to get a freeze tonight? 
I wanted to go out and plant my tomatoes that I have had for a couple of 
weeks now.  It is so cold and WINDY... that I can't make my self go out 
there.
Can you throw sheets and blankets over things?
I see people put plastic but I have read that plastic is not good for 
protection.  What do you think?
