What a crazy year. They are saying 37 right now for Phx which is 34 at my place so unless things change I won't cover. However, out in Maricopa you'll probably need to. If the warmer than usual temperatures in the arctic are the true cause of this we might be dealing with winters like this every year. That would be pretty discouraging and I'd probably eventually just have to settle with just a couple tropical trees, or maybe move to Hawaii. Very Happy

Its going to be warmer than previously forecasted. Only 40 in Phoenix for the low. I doubt you'll even need to cover anything in Maricopa, but I don't want to tell you that for sure just to avoid any liability. Very Happy

Yeah, NOAA is predicting 31, I'll still cover and light up everything just in case... Lol figures too, yesterday I was out rebuilding the PVC structure, looks like I won't even need it, I bet just some Xmas light, and clamp flood lights will suffice

Thanks, it was pretty, but I'm a lot happier now that it's gone. I can still see snow from the front of my home on Four Peaks. It didn't make it below about 36°F here, so no probs.
