The first low temperatures of fall are coming to my city (Monterrey, México). I don't really know what to protect yet. Some palms are more exposed than others, here's my list of more "cold sensitive" palms.

- Acrocomia aculeata (In the patio and gets some sun in the morning, grows really fast)

-Acrocomia aculeata 2 (In the street, more exposed to cold air).

Areca catechu (In a pot but it's inside, so protecting this during the winter won't be a problem)

Attalea butyracea (A small seedling in my patio, just threw its first V shape frond)

Chamaedorea seifrizii (Not a problem, very cold tolerant for me)

Cocos nucifera 'Orange Panama Tall' (Protected by a wall next to it)

Sabal yapa x9 (Exposed outside but I can bring them inside, plus they are cold tolerant)

Thrinax radiata (A clump,  I think it will survive without any problems)

What should I protect from these temperatures?

Thanks.

None of these temps pose a threat to the palms you mention however,

given the trend, I wonder what your winters are like. An extreme cold event may not be likely but prolonged cool temps (5°C to 15°C) may.
