It's already 43 in Dexter. My tomatoes and peppers are tucked in. Hope it works.

Frost around Memorial Day? How much more does it take for all of you deniers to believe in global warming? If this frigid weather doesn't mean global warming, what does? Surely you can't expect temperatures to actually warm during global warming!

It's still freaking spring time. Summer doesn't start for another three weeks.

It sure would be nice if the article mentioned the expected temperatures for Monday, given that it is a holiday! Odd that it lists Sunday and Tuesday yet omits Monday.

Turn on the Weather Channel if you want the full forecast. Leave A2.com alone because they are busy deleting our comments.

"Temperatures are expected to be in the 50s Wednesday afternoon, then drop to around 38 Thursday night." For a minute there my mind was twisted into a time warp. Then I realized it just needs some editing.
