Don't particularly care for half of the next 10 on weather.com forecasted to touch the 30s here in Central FL.... Wreaks of frost and rotting tropicals across the micro-climate-less landscape....

What you crying about a little California weather? I did not see anything close to a freeze and what is wrong with mid-60 highs and mid-40 lows?

What you look for is what is looking

Gonna love it! Temps above freezing, so no significant damage. The ultratropicals go in the greenhouse, so no worry there. I will be soaking up all the chill we can get before the heat descends for 8 months.

It looks like Thursday morning is going to be pretty cold all over the state. Accuweather predicts lows of 33 for Vero Beach, 41 for Hollywood, 39 for Homestead. Lake Wales, near Walt, should be in the low 30s. The West Coast looks to fare a little better with winds coming off the Gulf. Tarpon Springs is supposed to get no lower than 43 and Tampa 41. Could be a lot worse.

I am already tired of this winter - and its not even close to being over. I hate the cold, and now 5 days straight of it? Perhaps 6? There will definitely be frost, just no widespread freezes. But brrrr.....California heats up we cool down! :bemused:

Begonias are my thing. I've been growing and selling them for three decades, nearly two in Tampa Bay. NPR is an bhour N of St Pete, coast

Not overly concerned here but definitely worth monitoring. If the forecasted lows should shift 5F colder, then it would cause me to move the containerized plants to a warmer protected area.

The propane companies make lots of money off me this time of year.

No one cares about your current yard temperature 🙃

Prior to the last event, all the other weather forecasts were saying 29F-31F for Orlando one to three days out, while the NWS stuck to 34-35F, never lower. What do you know, we didn't see below mid 30s here. This event, the NWS has 38F for us for two nights. This is not unusual stuff for January here. I am not worried about a freeze at all here. Particularly because even when we are forecast for a light freeze here (28-31F) the official lows end up a couple degrees above this. Probably the urban heat island effect at work, but that is the local climate. For rural areas, it could very well be low 30s down to the north shore of Lake Okeechobee, while we bottom out several degrees higher.
