Whoah! That's cold. Well, today has been the coldest dawn throughout this winter for us. Hope it stays that way. 

3.3c/38F @ 6:45am in my garden. 

Before that our lowest was 5.8C/42.4F on Jan 6.

As I mentioned,  temps dropped to 3.3c/38F this morning and have rebounded to 20C/68F by noon (right now @1:50pm 21c/70F) in the garden.

That said, the potted palms by the south facing wall are getting 31.5C/88.7F of heat and the wall behind them is at a toasty 35C/95F.

Here are some pics. As you can see the Adonidia merrillii has presented cold spots. Bear in mind other than where it is placed, it has had no supplemental electrical heating throughout its winters here. A little experiment.

Cheap, easy to install, can see on my phone anywhere in the world.

Exact accuracy is in question.  I mounted mine on my roof only a foot above black asphalt shingles.

Love them for the price and ease of set up and use. 

In Spring/Summer they are much cheaper in store than online.

Also different brand than they sell online as well.
