    sabal minor was undamaged so far, palmetto has one dead leaf and the other was discolored a little, the trachy's leaves were dead at the top because they were exposed to the cold, and the filifera seedling had a little bit more damage to the largest leaf

    The date palm was completely brown but no spear pull, pretty sure its dead anyway, and the pindo spear pulled.
