Abstract

The 1947 growing season was a very peculiar one. The spring was cold and wet. Blueberries blossomed almost a month later than normal. July and August were dry and the latter was the hottest August on record in southwestern Michigan. Rains in early September were followed by a severe freeze on the 26th that froze many reaches on the trees. October was the warmest on record, and the weather continued mild until Thanksgiving when winter set in with a cold blizzard. The temperature reached at least -25°F. in some plantations at times during the winter.
