I just planted a couple hundred dollars worth of citrus trees and flowers and bushes about two weeks ago. Now, we get our worst hard freeze in the Valley since 1989. It never goes subfreezing in February. I better not lose my lime tree.

What the crap? Now we're upgraded to a 50% chance for sleet and snow on Friday? It has snowed a grand total of one day in the last 100 years.

They said on Fox News that climate change was a hoax.

Yeah, they're covered, I spent the better part of the evening on them but I'm afraid it's not going to help, we're looking at 4 nights from 22-27 degrees. I'm afraid that's going to be too much. The orange groves are frantically picking all the premature fruit they can and planning on massive loss of trees.
