Plant Hardiness Zone Map Shift


The new USDA planting zone map is up, and yeah, the zones are shifting northward.  Article at NPR, and below are screen caps of the maps.  At the article though, it's pretty nice, at the top of the maps there's a flip-between-maps button, and at least the CONUS part perfectly overlays for easy comparison.
