The valley of the sun had a string of freezing temperatures in mid-January that sent people into their drawers and closets for sweatshirts and coats, hats and gloves.
And into their linen closets for sheets and towels to cover their fragile bougainvillea, hibiscus, even citrus trees. For about a week, this is the ghostly scene we saw in just about every front yard as people scrambled to protect their plants. Unfortunately, the apparitions did little to save most plants, which still withered under the extended frost. But seriously, where else but in Phoenix do people do this, I'd like to know.
