Freeze Protection - Delay

From what I've read if the min temp hits the set threshold, it will do a freeze delay for the whole day.  What about an option in the settings like "delay for 2 hours" or something so it will still run, but later in the day.  In MN/WI running a couple hours delay from the "coldest" point in the morning is fine as the sun isn't high enough to dry out the lawn like watering in the summer heat.  Thoughts?

  Hi, Jeff.

  Yes, you're right and I second that, too. This settings option it would be useful, but I think we can achieve that right now using the "Hourly Restriction". That's is what I do when I know it will be too cold to water in the morning hours.

  Thanks.

  My program was schedule to run 7 PM. I've set my Freeze protect to 50 degree (don't ask why). The forecast was low of 49 but that was at 6 AM. At 7 PM it was 70 and it still did not water.

  I think this functionality needs a little tweak.
