4th Night in a Row of Freezing Temperatures


Winter arrived in Savannah and the deep freeze is expected to continue for the rest of the week!








Thursday Night we "could" see a mix of sleet, freezing rain and snow. And another blast of cold air at the end of the week forcasting a low in the TEENS here........





The covered benches are providing enough protection for our tropical Bonsai. And the temperate trees are resting nicely.

5-10 DAY COLD WAVE - Winter arrives in Savannah










Protect exposed water pipes....and other objects that can freeze: run the water at a slow steady pace during the hours of sub freezing temperatures.

This cold air mass will remain strong all of next week.
