So last night we had some good news in that the temps didn't get as low as they were predicting. The bad news part, however, is that we got freezing rain and sleet, so the tarps on the citrus trees had slush on them when we uncovered some of them. When I got up early there was actually some white crud on the ground in spots. WAY too close to being actual snow for my tastes!
Some of the bigger citrus we couldn't cover are not looking happy at all, and I guess we are going to have a lot of leaf loss on those trees. Hopefully none will get killed outright.
I am seriously not happy with 2018 so far. The weather has been pretty crappy and the rest of this first week of 2018 isn't looking like it is going to get any better.
