Worst Cold Wave Ravages Florida Citrus Crop
The century's cold snap totalled losses across Florida with the citrus crop valued at about 500 million dollars largely frozen as temperatures plunged to 10 degrees below. Along the lower East Coast some winter vegetables survived, while Tampa fields froze into ice and Miami saw a chilly 72 degrees. Nationwide, Kentucky and Tennessee endured the coldest zones, with many states reporting record lows and dozens of weather-related deaths as winter storms blanketed the region. Migrant workers face shelter relief needs as farmers seek salvage options.
