Unless your batteries are TOTALLY discharged. You have nothing to worry about. And even then here in FL it won`t get cold enough long enough to freeze. I have golf carts that sit outside just under canvas in Ohio, that don`t freeze while I am in Fl during the winter.

A fully charged pack will have no problems,, make sure they are charged




Can a battery freeze?
The only way that a battery can freeze is if it is left in a state of partial or complete discharged. As the state of charge in a battery decreases, the electrolyte becomes more like water and the freezing temperature increases. The freezing temperature of the electrolyte in a fully charged battery is -92.0oF. At a 40% state of charge, electrolyte will freeze if the temperature reaches approximately 16.0oF.

Keep looking out the window heard here that the sky may fall in Fla. If it does freezing is the least of your worry.
