Index of Subjects Hi Dave and All Reports from reliable sources from several parts of the province tell of deeper than usual ground freezing this year due to lack of snow. One farmer had water pipes frozen that had been laid a number of years ago. One old farmer that I knew said it was good for the hay crop - deep frost - held the moisture in the soil so the hay got a good start. Again he lived in a sandy place with no lack of drainage.
