My friend Matt posted this to the QuercusTrees list; thought it might be of interest to NAFEXers, and I don't think Matt will mind...

Hi all,
I was just made aware of the weather model forecasts for the Eastern US on the night of April 7-8 and it looks they're predicting a big cold outbreak with low temps below freezing all the way down to North Florida! I hope everyone will escape without too much damage and I wondered if anyone in the Eastern 1/2 of the US has any Oaks that have broken bud already? My Q. vaseyana which broke bud has more or less stopped expanding it's buds ever since that cold wet snow and sleet event, but it doesn't look damaged at all yet.

Again, I hope everyone is prepared and your plants don't get too fried!

Matt S.

PS. You can find the weather model forecasts here: http://wwwt.ncep.noaa.gov/nationalmaps/
Go down to the "temperature" maps and click on the "day 6" "lows".
