      Good morning, Temperature is chilly with 36 temperature and having wind chill so it is feeling like 27 degrees.  Stay warm.  Unfortunately, we are going to have a cold weekend.  Sounds like next week being the end of April it will be cooler and below average temperatures. 
Here is what the Old Farmer’s Almanac has predicted for our May weather.  Above normal temperatures for us here in Iowa, and above normal rain.  IF so, then we can get out in the gardens. 

We will be open on Monday April 24 from 9 till 6.  Every day open at 9-6.  Sunday open from 1-6.  I am posting pictures of what the crew has been planting and we have been growing here at Becky’s Greenhouse.  Spring is here, planting will be coming too, I promise.

What weather can we expect for May 2023? Looks like a chilly April is going to flip to warmer-than-average May. After what will have been a somewhat chilly April, the month of May could see the thermometer really rising across much of the United States. Temperatures are expected to be above average across many parts of the country, with the exception of the Intermountain West. Across Canada, while the Northwest Territories are expected to be cooler than normal, the rest of the country will see near- or above-normal temperatures.
With regard to precipitation, May will likely turn out to be drier than average across New England, while the mid-Atlantic and Southeast regions will be on the wet side. Most of the area from the Ohio Valley down to the Gulf Coast will see near-normal rainfall, as opposed to much of the Upper Midwest and Plains, where above-normal precipitation will be the norm. Many parts of the West will be on the dry side after withstanding a very wet (and snowy, in the mountains) winter. Alaska and Hawaii will see near- to above-normal precipitation. In just about everywhere except Atlantic Canada, where there will be a little less rain than usual, Canadians can expect above-normal precipitation throughout the month of May, which means the arrival of quite a few showers to help to get the green things growing.
