So, the crazy warm temps made me complacent. I did get my hibiscus and other tender plants in the greenhouse a few weeks ago, but others just need to be covered, so they stayed out where they had been all summer.
Well, I've been sick with a cold for the past few days, so was laying in bed last night at about 6:30 and saw that the temps were supposed to get in the low 30's here last night. And my coontie palms, metallic palm and lady palm were all still out and uncovered.
I thought, "Well, good luck little palms!" I was NOT getting out of my warm bed to protect them. It got down to 35 with calm winds and the dew point at 32, so hopefully there won't be much damage.
