Water has an enormous effect. My backyard is routinely 5-7 degrees warmer at night than my work which is 15 miles to the southeast. During a freeze event, my backyard is routinely 10 degrees warmer. It's amazing how much of a difference little changes in microclimate can make on night time temperatures. I have seen bare wet ground underneath plants be the difference between frozen plants and unfrozen plants
