If you hoped (or feared) this would be the summer without end, time to revise your thinking! The National Weather Service in Taunton has issued a Frost Advisory, which is in effect from late tonight until tomorrow morning for Hampshire and Northern Worcester Counties in Massachusetts. Temperatures will be in the lower 30s. Sensitive vegetation should be protected, and potted plants normally left outdoors should be covered or brought inside away from the cold. Time to harvest the basil and tomatoes, folks. And for some ideas on how to protect your other plants, check out this garden helper website. After tonight, temps climb out of frost range, at least for the next 10 days, with lows in the mid-40s to mid-50s, highs in the mid-60s. Fortunately, there's still growing time to be had before winter arrives in earnest.
