A new reason to look up! I did not know this...

I live in the Southeast and we have more pine plantations than you can imagine. I also have 400 acres in mostly pines and I monitor new growth on young pines. I've never seen anything like that. The only noticeable thing pine trees do this time of the year is cover everything with pollen. Both of my ponds are turning yellow and once the total accumulated degree-days temperature reaches 626° the pine and cedar pollen will reach it's peak. At that point almost everything is cover in yellow "dust".

I had to look it up because I've never noticed this either.
Yes! The "yellow storm" will soon be upon us, literally.
The Yellow Storm is what we've been going thru for decades since Bill Clinton.
...some call it "China"
It’s been in Eastern North Carolina for about a week.
Mississippi man here my friend. We know of what you speak. Kek
Can you explain what you mean by the total accumulated degree days temp?
The count starts after Feb. 1st. To find the degree-days, add the positive differences between the daily high temperatures and 55° each day. When the total degree-days add up to about 300 degree-days is when we begin to see the pines releasing the pollen. When the total degree-days reach 626, pine pollen production has reached its peak.
Very cool thanks, glad to see there’s a mathematical formula for knowing when the pine trees will jizz all over everything
Thank you for the explanation !
