Vintage 2023: March Weather Roaring like a Lion

As farmers, the first thing we do in the morning and the last thing we do at night is to consult the weather and hope to plan our work based on the forecast. This week, beginning on Tuesday, March 14, the forecast was not a very good one. According to the weather forecasters, a nor'ester was headed our way and words such as "bombogenesis" was being included as well. This is what the forecasters predicted for the Connecticut shoreline.

As it turned out, we were very fortunate to have just a lot of rain. There was wind and strong gusts which continue into today but the sun is out!
One of us might even go to the vineyard to continue pruning duties!
