10 oF or -12 oC here in Tulsa at a mere 36 oN latitude, where all palms were in pots indoors.
14 oF or -10 oC up at 46 oN on the Oregon coast. Gulp. That's not bad for unprotected zone 9 palms, is it?

lowest here is -12.7C (+9F). It could get colder tonight.....I hope not.

I can't find the downtown data here, but Pearson has hit -18C so far. Kingston tells me that it hit -28C, but the data is coming from Watertown, NY, which is colder... Hmmm... Where has the Canadian weather data gone?

Looks like 0F here(7a)

-5F at the airport north of here.

Looks like most of you, guys, will have a White X-mas, but Jim has drizzle right now. The White X-mas is melting, hei?

andym · Post by **andym** » Tue Dec 17, 2013 4:05 pm

Just -3.5C here

One bonus for me is that my new neighbours 30ft Conifers have been chopped as has virtually everything else giving me some extra sunlight in my rather darkened Winter garden. A stormy day is forecast for Christmas day and cold weather has been put back from mid to end of January

hardyjim · Post by **hardyjim** » Sat Dec 21, 2013 10:02 am

They are saying possibly -15F here after a fresh snowfall this weekend...

I was out today replacing bulbs and adding a layer of protection

lucky1 · Post by **lucky1** » Sat Dec 21, 2013 10:31 am

possibly -15F here

sidpook · Post by **sidpook** » Sat Dec 21, 2013 11:21 am

Among others....I gave the Princeps an extra blankey

Hopefully they will get snowed in too,that helps only refrigerate to 32F

sidpook · Post by **sidpook** » Sat Dec 21, 2013 2:55 pm

Hope this is true for January like the past three years.....

Good priority, Jim!

Michael...darn it, the map stops at the border

Good for you.
"Warmer" than what? December? or other mild January years.
You're at 17C now ????

I may look up real estate prices in Much Warmer

Barb, it has always pissed me off how American weather maps stop at the border as if no other lands exist outside of the USA, part of the problem here....You'll be warmer too though as says the model i saw. xoxoxoxo
Mike

our low for the next two nights is + 14 C

PS warmer than average January temps

lucky1 · Post by **lucky1** » Sat Dec 21, 2013 9:54 pm

Thanks, Michael, for confirming we'll be warmer too despite not being on the map.

Plus 14...wow.
Bet that's closer to March temps for you folks.

Just thought of something strange...I worry more about weather now as a palm tree nut than when we had an apple orchard.

Enjoy the warmth, buddy.

Sounds like it's brutal with freezing rain accumulations of 1 and 2 inches north of you.

It's crazy how that happened too. The higher elevations (ie Mt. Washignton ) were warmer in 40s to 60's and the cold Arctic air found its way down into the valleys and froze everyhting...Nuts!

Bang on with your forecast Jim... -15F

No cold to worry about here yet just WIND with gusts of 70mph. I tested my metal and plastic greenhouse to destruction

Screwing the base worked
