Weather Alert - California Storm

California Storm

Fri, Mar. 7th, 2025

Dear Ole Tyme Customers:

We are anticipating a significant storm front to impact the California Coast starting Wednesday evening, 3/12, and continuing through Thursday afternoon. This will disrupt production in the Santa Maria, Oxnard, and Baja Mx. growing regions. Here’s what we can expect:

  • Limited order fulfillment on Thursday, 3/13, as crews will be unable to fully harvest.
  • Potential product losses due to post-rain cleanup, including stripping plants and discarding rain-damaged products into furrows.
  • Loading delays and possible order pushbacks during this period.
  • The lingering effects of this storm may extend into the following week, impacting harvest projections and reducing yields.

The Model below depicts Wednesday 3/12 at 10PM.

The Model below depicts Thursday 3/13 at 10AM.

If you have any questions, please reach out to your Sales Representative.

Thanks,

Ole Tyme Produce
