It doesn't seem like it's going to let up, until possibly the beginning of next week. Different websites are reporting that we will be getting snow on Friday and people at work are already talking about it. I'm off on Fridays, so I'll be home resting nice and cozy in my bed. But for you folks, who are traveling or taking long commutes to work, take extra precaution, because rain and snow will start around 1 AM; if that's the case, you will encounter icy roads.
Freezing temperatures also mean, dead plants. Sad story, but it's true; cover up your plants if you wish to save them! Ryan and I don't have any plants to cover; the ones we had froze last year, and we are not bound to replant tropical trees that are not meant to be planted in these areas anyway. We had some palms, orchid trees and other shrubs a couple years back and when we replanted, the next year's freeze destroyed them. We have some plants in pots that we will bring inside.

I brought in the hibiscus this morning. It will live this year, damnit, if it's the last thing I do. :)
thank you for saving the hibiscus my love.
Save the plants? Here tonight we'll have to make sure that exposed skin doesn't freeze and heat the cars so the oil doesn't gum up. They are calling for -20 tonight with a wind chill of -35. BRR!!
Geez. That is freaking cold! I'm praying for you Tony, may the power stay on and you have plenty of wood to keep you and your family safe and warm (if you have a fireplace).
Thank you!
We usually get a cold snap but this it over the top. They've even closed all the Denver area schools due to extreme low temperatures. Never heard of that happening.
