US (CA): Citrus growers escape damage from hard freeze

Despite the harsh weather predictions, Central Valley citrus growers are thanking Mother Nature for her gift of manageable weather. On Tuesday, the National Weather Service issued a hard freeze warning for late Tuesday night and early Wednesday morning, which worried the trade group California Citrus Mutual.

But, to their benefit, “a decent cloud cover created a strong inversion layer in most citrus producing areas, helping to keep grove temperatures in a manageable range,” reported California Citrus Mutual in a news release.
