Just when I thought it was over

I'm tired of bringing pots inside and outside and protecting plants. 3 freezes in a span of less than 2 months, never seen that before.

I feel your pain. They are saying a potential snow here next week. I'm sick of it, but it's the other 8-9 months that make it tolerable I guess.

Getting down to the teens again. Currently predicted is 19F (and estimates have been going down every day) with 7F dewpoint and clear skies...  So yeah, it'll end up being another 8a winter.  Guess I have to learn to accept that my 8b plants are the zone pushers now! SOOOO SICK OF THIS!

@Swolte I figured it was just another Tennessee thing with this next cold snap. Admittedly I haven't checked regional forecasts yet. So you're saying Texas (and others) are gonna get in on this too? Grrr....

We're in the most dangerous state of winter. The end of winter is usually when one should not be too excited yet. The vortex likes to lash out for a curtain call.

Update: I guess it will not be that bad after all. Forecast now says we will only get down to 4⁰C.

@idontknowhatnametuse Tienes suerte amigo. 

Im forecasted to get another week or 2 of cold and possibly frost, which has me really annoyed because I this was over already. Might have to go in protection mode again 🙄.

Yeah I hear you. Same here in west Texas, but unfortunately we are supposed to see a few nights around 10 F so time to break out the fleece wraps and frost cloth for a few things. By next weekend back up to the high 70s. Crazy bipolar weather.

ATL: High of 15°C/59°F at 5AM. We will drop below freezing tonight. Strong NW breeze all day. Thursday morning prediction is 19°F/-7°C. Moving citrus in and out is a pain. The potted hybrids won't like that cold.

I think they'll be okay I had daffodils starting to come up in December and they went through our record breaking negative 15 and they look flawless and the rest of the daffodil started to come up at the end of January and they look fine after 12 at the beginning of the month
