Wed, Jan. 8th, 2025
Dear Ole Tyme Customers:
WEATHER ALERT:
Strong high winds and freezing temperatures are expected to impact Yuma and Mexico over the next few days, creating challenges for production in both regions.
What to Expect:
- Most crops in the field are likely to show defects such as fringe burn and tip burn, affecting quality and shelf life.
- Afternoon harvests have been cut short due to strong winds reaching 25-30 mph.
- Ice delays are anticipated from tomorrow through Saturday as overnight temperatures drop into the mid-30s.
- Quality issues are expected to persist for several weeks.
- We recommend closely monitoring inventories and aligning them closely with sales projections to minimize waste.
Please plan accordingly to navigate these weather-related challenges.
If you have any questions, please reach out to your Sales Representative.
Thanks,
Ole Tyme Produce
