"Megastorms" Coming - should I put the seedlings in?


I forgot the seedlings outside overnight, but they still made it! Hooray! Thank goodness it didn't get to cold. I was freaking out this morning when I woke up. All that care put in, thrown away on a one night stand just was to much for me to handle. But they made it! Which makes me even more excited to plant these over-due puppies. 

But, now this! The Forecast, from the Capital Weather Gang: "This forecast is a wet one! The models over the past 24 hours have all been simulating 2 to 4 inches of rain to impact the area Friday through Sunday. This is a real 'megastorm' with a circulation extending from the Plains to the East Coast."


Megastorm, WTF? These are the kind of storms we usually get in May - so I guess spring is as anxious to get here as we are to have it!

The real question, should I plant the seedlings? Good for them, or will they just wash out? If I keep the cold frames covered, I could have some control over the amount of water they get.

Decisions, decisions. What should I do?
