Growing Season Ends Across Central New York and Northeast Pennsylvania

Clear skies and calm winds, associated with Canadian high pressure, prodvided ideal conditions for a widespread frost and freeze on October 19, 2008. Low temperatures ranged from the upper 20s to lower 30s across much of the area. This has ended the growing season across the Finger Lakes Region, specifically Seneca, Southern Cayuga, and Onondaga counties.

Now all of Central New York and Northeast Pennsylvania have experienced temperatures below 32 degrees. This ends the growing season. No Freeze or Frost Advisories or Warning will be issued for these areas until the start of the growing season around May 1, 2009.
