Exactly how cold is it supposed to get there? I'm assuming you park outside? What was the rating on the stuff you used? A 50/50 mix can be good down to -50F but who knows, maybe they sell something that isn't rated for low temps down south? Maybe your tester is faulty?

I have tried 2 different testers and both read the same. We are looking at -2 for the low Monday night with a high Monday in the upper teens. OUr averages this time of year are upper 30s to mid 50s.. Also projecting 21" of ice and snow from Sunday to Thursday that is going to just shut us totally down. We are already preparing for several days with no power just in case. The antifreeze is rated for around -20 at 50/50
