Raining in Dry Creek

Well, we are seeing a little rain today. So far 0.2 inches which will settle the dust. The grapes are a month or so away from bloom, so this rain is just fine for May flowers (we already are through with tulips and well into peonies and almost to roses.)

Possible frost this AM (4/5)

It got as low as 33.7F at my house this morning and Phil (vineyard manager) started the frost protection Rainbirds around 6AM. All of the low lying vineyards from Lambert Bridge Road into Healdsburg were running frost protection if they have it. I heard all of Alexander Valley from Geserville to Healdsburg was doing so also. Probably colder in Mend.
