In this section you can use Risk Assessment tools for cold, warm and precipitation events or use the climate comparison tool.<\/p><p>In the image below we are highlighting the Risk of Cold event (&lt;1\u00b0C for &gt;1 hour). You can see from the second graph that there is still a 40% risk of temperatures dropping below 1\u00b0C for 1 hour at the start of May. The third graph shows a comparison of this year to the last 40 years.<\/p><p>The last 3 years have seen a cool start to the planting season, which can be partially\u00a0 blamed on the triple La Nina event. So, this is another tool that can be used as a planning tool for field operations.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cc69efa
