No Bob, but it feels darned cold - because it is such a "damp cold" here. Some of my Tech Services guys are down here from our Ohio facility and even they are complaining...
They were saying on the radio this morning that we are on the verge of breaking records locally...and it is supposed to be colder yet this weekend... :leave:

Good thing my trees are full :yesnod:mcmopar said:You've got that right. It has been and will continue to be in the high 20's overnight for at least one more week. Our cruise night is this Sat. night and the predicted low is 28 - plus a wind chill. Now, that might not seem too cold to those of you in the zero degree range but in contrast to the normal high temps we are used to (98+ in summer) it is extremely cold.
Another problem with the cold down here is the fact that a lot of the citrus and strawberry farmers are going to lose quite a bit of harvest - driving prices higher. The citrus fruit is ok down to 32 degrees. If any of it is damaged they just send it to the juicing facility but if temps stay below 28 for an extended period of time (5 hours or more) the trees can suffer damage or even die. That is what sucks because it takes 5 years for a citrus tree to mature and start producing fruit. Back in the '80's we had several years of hard freezes and it all but wiped out the citrus industry in Central Florida. Lots of farmers had to sell their groves to land developers because of their losses.
