No zipcode here in Dominica, but our weather is as unpredictably crazy as U.S. weather sounds. Used to be that Nov-Feb was best growing season -- mostly sunny days, frequent (usually night time, early A.M.) rain. Now we're having weeks on end without rain; then weeks with nothing but. Farmers afraid to plant. Market short of most everything since earlier weather (summer-fall) so violently rainy that crop after crop washed out. It's like starting all over in a new place without past experience/wisdom to guide. We're trying to reduce risk via diversity but that also increases work load and probably moderates potential income.
So many thanks to all of you on the list for the many contributions of self and wisdom over the year. Best wishes for Happy Holidays and a peaceful, healthful, joyful and bountiful New Year.

Carla,
I'm trying to get a good representative of different areas, within various
Zones, to monitor the weather on my website. A number of people have
already given me zip codes (which is the definitive locator). Would you
object to giving me your zip code so I can post a module for your area? You
can see what I'm doing at http://continuousharvest.com/z4.aspx
Thanks

62 degrees here in Oklahoma this morning! But, the weather guys are talking
about the possibility of tornado's this afternoon. In December? Our weather
has been crazy, but that's unheard of!
Happy Holidays!
Carla
