    (WGHP) — Many of us are getting the itch to start planting, given the longer, warmer days of sunshine. Every year, many of us plant and then worry a few nights about our work being killed by a freeze or frost. You can always plant early, but you are taking a chance on losing your plants and investment. Across North Carolina, you can see from the map, our last average freeze is usually the first week of April, and the last frost is about two weeks later. The map is a general average.

    (WGHP) — After a threatening period of weather this past weekend, everything should be quiet this week. The biggest excitement will be a few showers on Thursday with around 1/10″ and a slight chance (30%) on Saturday and a 60% chance for showers next Monday, 1/4″. Otherwise, sunny to partly cloudy each other day with a warming trend. From the upper 50s to near 60 today, back to near 70 tomorrow. Up to 78 on Wednesday. Then back to 67 with the showers on Thursday.
