Tonight will be the coldest night of the year, meaning the temperature will dip below freezing. So if it's this cold down in southern California (I'm in NorCal) the orange groves will have to have HUGE heaters blowing on the orange trees so the fruit doesn't freeze.
Two more weeks and the temperatures will start to subtly shift up a bit. I am so done with this cold weather. So done. I don't like when breathing hurts my nose and I need 78 blankets on my bed. Give me a nice 70 degrees.

Farmers here used to have heaters and nasty smug pots. They use sprinklers now. When the water freezes the ice insulates the fruit/plants.
