Default Re: Better get ready West Coast

This morning we had a low of 27F but also had about 10 hours below freezing. Ice formed 3/4" thick on a tub of water sitting outside. Banana leaves are already fried. A small amount of the young tips on some of my white sapote are burned back but they look very good overall. I'm not expecting any major issues with these freezes. Last winter we got down to 22F and still did okay. Wish I hadn't uncovered my lychee so soon (I was making room for the utility company to switch the power lines to our new solar system but I learned too late that this won't happen until this Friday.)
