Freezing Weather In Florida

7 01 2010

It is freezing in Florida.

Usually winter in Florida is not very cold.

There are a lot of strawberries and oranges grown in Florida.

The cold temperature can destroy the oranges and strawberries.

Farmers have to spray water on the plants to save them from the cold temperature.

The water froze on the plants and protect them.

The frozen water is called icicle.

Icicle on plants are very beautiful.
