    • Churl Earl September 3, 2010
      You'd be hard pressed to believe right now that the real weather story today is the cold front about to sweep through. Not only is it saving the day by steering Earl into the maritimes (giving us the kind of glancing blow that leads to news stories of the devastating blow NYC surely is due), but it ushers in a taste of early autumn right on time -the en […]

    • Tropical Weather Afoot August 31, 2010
      Entirely too unclear at this moment, but it appears NYC may get strafed by Hurricane Earl on Friday or Saturday. Possibly high winds means protect those rooftop plants! I don't expect much from this storm, but one never knows. NYC is a tough target and rarely sees much tropical weather. The garden should expect some rain, however, and that is always wel […]
