Overnight low will be 16. Tomorrow's high about 33. Current temp: 28.

Forgot to bring in box and I'm too tired to bring them in. O8)

Thx!

1. Sounds like a cool, dry place to me

Heck, keep them there :-)

on edit: Wow! Obviously, living in California for this long has made me forget that things freeze when left outside...

2. fresh veggies? NO
Go get them now. IF they freeze tonight, they will be mushy tomorrow when thawed.
