My big potted Yucca rostrata is outside, albeit under cover and snugged up against a window. Dry. How cold before it will have a problem in a pot? The lowest forecast for the next few days is -14 oC at the nearest airport; should be warmer here in town plus up against (single pane) window.
Sheesh... -24C I hope it don't get that cold Barb. That's still pretty early in the season for that. I'd hate to think what temps would be experienced at higher altitudes.
Check this out Barb...from the forecasters discussion here.
NEXT MONDAY AND TUESDAY...THE LONGER RANGE SIGNALS SUGGEST THAT
AFTER WHAT KIND OF SYSTEM CAN MAKE IT THROUGH OR CLOSE TO THE AREA
SUNDAY INTO EARLY MONDAY...A VERY COLD AIRMASS THEN LOOMS ACRS
CANADA. THE FRESHLY PHASED L/W TROF WILL THEN BECOME COLD CORE AND
ACT AS AN ARCTIC CONDUIT ALLOWING A COLD DUMP DOWN THE NORTHERN
PLAINS AND UPPER MIDWEST LATER MONDAY INTO TUE. THE 12Z GFS HAS A
FRIGID H85 MB COLD POOL OF -20 TO -26C BARRELING IT/S WAY DOWN
ACRS MOST OF THE CWA BY 12Z TUE...THE 12Z ECMWF IS ADVERTISING -19 TO
-21C. EVEN WITH MIXING WINDS WHICH WILL BE BRISK IN THIS TYPE OF
CAA UNDER CYCLONIC FLOW...TEMPS BY TUE MORNING MAY GO SUB-ZERO. MAY
BE WIND CHILL ADVISORY CRITERIA ATTAINED IN PORTIONS OF THE AREA LATE
MON NIGHT AND THROUGH MIDDAY TUE. WELL AGAIN...MANY SYSTEMS AND
PHASING PROCESSES TO GO THROUGH TO GET TO THIS EXTENDED PERIOD BUT
WILL START TO TREND TEMPS DOWN. ..12..

Andy, our lowest in November is minus 34.8C by the way.
Jay, Barb, Aaron sorry for this cold. Jim, take care, yours in it's way!
By the way you, NorthAmericans, have pretty mild winters comparing mine. So everything is gonna be alright!

Igor... I hope you are enjoying summer at the moment. I see you are the other end of Barbs temperatures..... +24C in December???
Eeeeeuuuuwwww, awful.
Damn Omega blocks, nothing's moving away at any speed.
Just getting colder and colder.
The dog doesn't even want to go out for a pee.
Thank God for the woodstove.
Igor's weather sticker shows 0 oC at the moment;
And then back up to 24C
Everybody stay warm and safe with what's still ahead.

It wasn't me but my weather sticker
There was quite comfortable plus 12 yesterday but today is snowing and the temperature is coming down. So we have a winter wonderland in fact. It's not toooo bad. Winter is Winter!
Yeah, what's with that weather sticker?
If it were here, the pointer would have disintegrated.
Still getting colder here but the Prairies are taking the worst hit.
Each year I supply friends with evergreen tree branches and pine cones for Christmas decorating.
I love hiking around and collecting that stuff.
The dog even hauls branches down the hill, it's fun.
An electric blanket coat with a 500 foot extension cord may be needed this time.
Right now the Arctic air and pale sunlight are battling to keep it near 20F
They say snow Sunday with a fresh Arctic dump behind it...good time to observe to
difference in low/high temps with bare ground and then with snow with similar air masses.
Ill be in Orlando, Florida at Walt Disney next week ...will miss all that cold ....Forecast for Orlando : sunday to tuesday 28c or 82F, then cooling down to 24c or 75F ....will post pics when ill come back .....
Good luck guy's...but here its not that cold...+5c today and +2c tomorrow, then return to the normal or a bit lower...

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.
-Aaron-
I noticed that you are in a cold spell......keep the updates coming and I hope all your plants thrive!
crazy disparity in the weather over here.Took the dog for a walk around 6:45 pm and the sign at the HS reads 64 degrees. People are going to the winter choral concert in short sleeves and no jackets...feels like April, weird
Yeah, Beny, lots of pics from Orlando will get us through this BRRRRR time.
Have fun.
Thanks Tim, just hope the power stays on for the C-9s during this madness.
Michael, short sleeves and no jackets!
Omega blocks should be illegal the damn things just stall and weather gets worse and worse, i.e. colder.
Enjoy your jogging shorts weather

they say we will dip over the weekend and have high to mid 20s at night and around 40 during days, (except next wed and thursday....highs in the 30's ugh!!!!) right now it is already starting to change as the overnight low is/was 63 currently but it will drop to the 40's by afternoon, BRRRRR!!!! Hate it!
I hope this weather misses the east coast. It is this kind of set up that is the hardest on plants "spring like temps followed by an arctic blast".

I have been so lucky this winter so far we've had some cold -16c was the worst but we haven't had more than 1/2" of snow yet. An hour west of me right now has 3 feet of snow. Yesterday got up to 14c I was so happy at that I enjoyed a frosty beverage on the deck in celebration. The past few Decembers have been pretty good to me but Jan/Feb more than make up for it. (Especially Feb) The past few years I have drove from my parents to my in laws on Xmas day with the sun roof open its been 5c+ the last few Dec 25th's
Looks like the Omega block moved from Siberia to your side, guys! It's funny but the Siberian cities 2 000 kms north off me have the temperatures above zero while I had minus 11C this morning. What's a heck?
