Not if we get a frosty night. Then it's just double pneumonia all round.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

The show is already getting cranked up. I just spent about 15 minutes outside and saw 4 including 1 really nice long one.
