  • Morning temperatures dipped into the mid-30s for the second consecutive morning
  • Lettuce ice is causing one to two-hour harvesting delays for most suppliers
  • Colder weather and more severe lettuce ice are forecast for December 29-31
  • Current lettuce and leafy greens quality is excellent; yields are high
