In fact, temperatures in the Triangle area fell below freezing at 2:00am on Sunday, December 31st and did not rise above 32 degrees for 158 consecutive hours at 3:00pm on January 6 (measured at the Raleigh-Durham International Airport). This freezing streak broke the previous record of 157 hours set in January 1982.
We're past all that now, thank goodness, but I'm sure the low temps (days and days under 20 degrees, and as low as 4 degrees) have had a detrimental effect on my winter greens. We shall see.
