It's going to be 36 degrees @ Stratton on Friday night. Crazy cold for this time of year, especially for southern VT. Might be cold enough for a frost at the peak.

The stink bugs are starting to swarm the house and this year, the spotted lanternflies have come out in droves...

I've got tons as well , they seem like a non issue though as they favor Bittersweet weed vines that plauge my raspberry patch. Haven't seen any damage from them.The nymps are pretty cool looking and the adults are entertaining to poke and watch them fly 50' or so.
