4 days after the event we still have a significant amount of snow on the ground, including all shady roads.
Some roads are still closed; the airport just reopened this morning.
I've never seen anything like it here.

Rained all night.

This morning, it's down to 20°F (-6.7°C) so all that moisture has frozen. And temps will be down to 15°F (-9.4°C) by late afternoon.

I'm not going anywhere, because it's:



"Ice, ice, baby…"

Woke up to 16°F (-8.9°C), which was as warm as it is going to be today.

Frigid.

I keep a Hibiscus, a Shefflera, a Monstera, and several Bird of Paradise plants on my patio all summer. The Schefflera and the Monstera are more than 30 years old.
I'll keep them outdoors until the first freezing overnight temperatures but they never have to see a hard frost.
I put them in the basement near an eastern facing sliding glass door where the temp ranges from 45-55 thru winter.

I picked a Hibiscus flower for my wife yesterday morning, and the Birds of Paradise are getting set to flower soon.

Tropical plants in the ground can probably withstand a bit more overnight cold as long as it's isolated, and they're not either flowering or fruiting.

My brother in Tampa was scrambling to get succulents & orchids into the garage to shield them from the 28°F they were getting.
