I am standing in my backyard in Barbados looking at a tangerine tree and a nearby lime tree, which are just outside the back door and have grown to be about 12-15 feet high. Istand in the doorway staring in surprise, because the tops of both trees are covered with snow. It's a bright sunny day. Looks like a light snowfall has left snow caps on the tops of these trees, but there is no snow on the ground. As though not enough has fallen to accumulate there. I am thinking 'These trees are going to die, they can't take this kind of cold.'
