Not-so cherry weather

If variety is your idea of good weather, you’ve been blessed.

But you obviously aren’t a cherry grower if you don’t mind temperatures hitting 70 degrees one day, then dropping into the teens the next.

Yo-yo weather has been one of many problems faced by county growers over the last 14 years or so, which takes us back to 2012 and the last time unseasonably warm temperatures swelled cherry buds so early that virtually all were killed by frost.
