Soil temperature today
Estimated82.4°F
Estimated from a 12-day rolling air temperature average, reading of 2026-10-18. How we get this number.
- Cool-season seeding — 50–65°F (15° wide; estimate OK)
- Crabgrass pre-emergent — 52–58°F (6° wide; measured only)
- Warm-season seeding — above 65°F
Nothing is open today
That is an answer too — seeding at the wrong soil temperature wastes the seed.
Not yet
Overseeding / seeding
warm-season grass is seeded in spring, and it is not spring.
Sprinkler blowout
it has not cooled off enough yet.
No crabgrass pre-emergent call today: the estimate carries about ±2.6°F of error, and the useful pre-emergent range is only 6°F wide. We would rather say nothing than send you out with herbicide in the wrong week. Why.
