General Outlook It's 2022 thrips season. The first half of the winter was wet and cold, but since the turn of the year, we have seen next to no precipitation in the region.
General outlook A couple of 100+ F daily maximum temperatures and warm nights will give thrips development a little boost over the next week. A gradual return to low-to-mid 90's highs is expected from now until second week of June.
General situation: Things have warmed up recently. Our reference weather station for Eastern San Joaquin is running about a week ahead of the last couple of years and the 30-year average for heat accumulation, so far this season.
