Extent of Cold Temperatures in Ontario

Two significant cold temperature events have occurred in Ontario this month. The maps below highlight the extent and distribution of these two frost events.

While significant injury is visible across a wide swath of the province from this past weekends frost, scouting has shown that despite the injury seen on the crop, corn for the most part should be okay since the growing point of most fields remain below the ground. A few more soybean fields experienced damage necessitating replanting.

Much thanks to the folks at Weather INnovations (WIN) for supplying these maps of the cold temperature extent and distribution.
