20 degrees here in Rosharon. Even though I wrapped it, I'm sure my Meyer Lemon tree is toast.

I read that gardenias can withstand 15F. Hopefully, my gardenia (I covered it) will make it. However, I'm sure the hibiscus are freeze dried and the philodendron is now mushCromagnum wrote:20 degrees here in Rosharon. Even though I wrapped it, I'm sure my Meyer Lemon tree is toast.
.
I had a low of 17F. Coldest I have experienced here.
Yes, a lot of plants will be toast after this one. A lot of queen palms will be lost, at least up here. I hope the date palms at Portofino Shopping Center make it.

They are working on the final report. There was a partial Report yesterday afternoon. When I get a chance I'll search that out. Precipitation was still falling when it was issued.cperk wrote:srain houtx will we get a report on the ice accumulation.

Looking ahead we should warm up the next week or so, but not to be the bearer of bad news...or goods news depending on your perspective the models are indicating some very cold air currently over Siberia were the actual temperatures are in the -70 to almost -90F looks to build across Canada and I source Region late January. February typically is our climatologically favored month for Wintry Precipitation. I mentioned yesterday on NWSchat that I didn't believe we would tie the Winter of 1973 with 3 recorded snow events in one season in SE Texas again in my lifetime and it's only mid January! Well here we are. Guess the only good thing is those pesky mosquitos aren't a problem at this time...

January '73, the 3 recorded snow events were able to be measured with a ruler and not just race amounts. Being in elementary school in Oak Forest and being able to run around in the snow 3 times was incredulous and fabulous! Probably not so much fun for my mom, who had to bundle us up and then wash our clothes OUTSIDE in the garage, and my dad who had to stay home from teaching school.srainhoutx wrote:Looking ahead we should warm up the next week or so, but not to be the bearer of bad news...or goods news depending on your perspective the models are indicating some very cold air currently over Siberia were the actual temperatures are in the -70 to almost -90F looks to build across Canada and I source Region late January.

The next bitter cold that SRain mentioned does not surprise me. Once these arctic intrusions get really cranked up, they tend to deliver every 10 - 15 days until they're tapped out. At least that is how I remember them.
This was supposed to be a "warmer/dryer," winter eh....

The cold up in Siberia is the real deal and it needs to be monitored. It will spill over into Canada over time. A discharge down the plains around the end of January/beginning of February has led to some of our historical record-breaking blue northers. I actually think the coldest weather of the season is yet to come. Don't let the warm weather over the next week or so fool you.

I'll take the blame for that. I told everyone on the Storm2K forum last winter that since I had the winter of my dreams (warm and dry) that this winter would be very cold and icy across Texas to compensate them for a lack of winter in 2016-2017. I'll turn the thermostat back up come spring.Rip76 wrote:This was supposed to be a "warmer/dryer," winter eh....

I'm going to enjoy the gradual warm up. I will admit the snow event yesterday was something to see. Very picturesque as it fell. At least this gives me time to prepare a little more. Hmm wonder if there are any sweat suits left? That is IF it does come to fruition. Get all the cold out of the way so when I run the Woodlands Half marathon beginning of March it'll be nice early spring weather. I'll stay tuned and read this forum like a book!srainhoutx wrote:Looking ahead we should warm up the next week or so, but not to be the bearer of bad news...or goods news depending on your perspective the models are indicating some very cold air currently over Siberia were the actual temperatures are in the -70 to almost -90F looks to build across Canada and I source Region late January.
