Cooler weather has local businesses and residents bracing for Freeze Warning
PHOENIX - People are bundled up in the morning and at night, but for the most part they're enjoying the weather during the day.
On the corner of 6th Avenue and Adams you'll find the Corner Spot.
Keivin Landazuri is the owner and he says no matter how cold it gets, this is where he'll be during mornings and afternoons.
Cold weather not scaring business owner
Local perspective:
"Sales do go down, people tend to not come out but the cold doesn't tend to affect me when I'm working. It's always nicer to be cold than working in 100 degree weather," said Landazuri.
Whether you're working outside or simply taking your dog to the park, it's impossible to ignore the cooler temps.
Customers shared their thoughts.
What they're saying:
"I was not warm enough this morning. I was just in this sweater and a jacket. I wish I had a hat, scarf and warmer leggings on. It was chilly."
"I haven't pulled out the parka yet though. I'm just not there but if we get any colder I might have to do that."
"I was expecting it to be a lot hotter than what I thought it was going to be right now."

Opinions on the weather varied depending on where they're from and what temps are like back home.
"I think it's amazing. I'm from Canada, so this is really nice and warm," said Alanna Kinsman. "I think we thought it would be 20 celsius, so yes, I thought it would be a little warmer than this but this is ok because the sun is nice and warm. Even though it says its 15, it feels closer to 18 or 20 (celsius)."

A deep freeze has some green-thumbed enthusiasts worried their plants will freeze over but Valley nurseries are providing tips to protect one of Arizona's prized Five C's.
"It feels like San Diego, so I guess I can live here, but I know during the summer it will probably be a little hotter," said Alex Rodriguez, who later changed his answer to, "a lot hotter!"
"It's a great juxtaposition to the 113°-117° we had this summer. I'm from South Dakota, so this is fantastic to me," said Kristin Rich. "We actually get to wear sweaters and beanies and not look ridiculous."
"I am from the East Coast so I kind of love it, the cold," said Alex Kroot. "In the summer we're always worried about their (dog) paws and if they're overheating so I'd rather be extreme in the other direction if I can."
It is going to get even colder on Tuesday night, so make sure your pipes & plants are covered, and bring your pets inside.
