Bob Werra warned back on December 7 > Attention Californians and Arizonans, Jane's arctic express is hitting > us also. In my No. Calif. valley it hit 24F last night and 20F tonight. > This will be the coldest since 1998 when we had an arctic express with > temp. down to 18F. We were lucky here in Phoenix. I'm in a cold spot but my lowest temperature was 26F the first night then 29F the next. I had everything covered or inside. That 1998 blast was the worst since I moved to Arizona in 1983. I almost lost a lemon tree; only the trunk survived. January 2007 was bad but not so bad as 1998. Leo Martin Phoenix Arizona USA
