Current forecast has us between 30-33 for tonight and dry.

Lucky for you. Already raining here. Now, just hope it stays above freezing.

Here's a picture from Yucaipa, which normally gets cold, but note how nice those queen palms are (were)!

No freezes in our 5 day. So far the Ocala area has gotten down to about 30 I think but no freezes at my locale as papayas and bananas only have minor cosmetic damage. Im hoping for this to be the 3rd straight year without a hard freeze in my 9a location! OTOH mosquitos, lubbers, and other insects have been worse than I can ever remember!

This year wasn't even close to last year. Only went below freezing for 1 night at 27 F. Last year bottomed out at 21.

Chad, you are right on that. Even though I dropped a few degrees lower to 24, this is all in all nearly a normal winter. Of course, I am knocking on wood as I type this, but if we nothing more but a few mild freezes this will be a great winter.

Nothing remarkable for mid-winter here. Upper 30s (very briefly one night) then two nights in the low 40s. Lowest high was upper 50s. The cold front we had in the first half of November 2014 was as strong or stronger.
