Patchy Frost warnings

For tonight through early tomorrow Frost advisory in effect from 4 AM to 9 AM edt Monday. Clear. Patchy frost after midnight. Colder with lows in the mid 30s. Northeast winds 5 to 10 mph in the evening...becoming light and variable. Good thing that we have not planted anything in the garden as yet. The plants are still in the cold frame protected but growing. Prithee, smite the poet in the eye when he would sing to you praises of the month of May. It is a month presided over by the spirits of mischief and madness. Pixies and flibbertigibbets haunt the budding woods: Puck and his train of midgets are busy in town and country. In May, nature holds up at us a chiding finger, bidding us remember that we are not gods, but overconceited members of her own great family. She reminds us that we are brothers to the chowder-doomed clam and the donkey; lineal scions of the pansy and the chimpanzee, and but cousins-german to the cooing doves, the quacking ducks and the housemaids and policemen in the parks. - O' Henry, The Month of May
