Spring Freeze!!

We had quite a snow storm yesterday and the temp is still below freezing... this hasn't happened here since I started gardening, so I was wondering if anyone could please tell me what might happen with my tulips that have emerged but not bloomed and my crabapples that were getting ready to bloom.... do you think they'll still bloom?

Tulips - nothing.
Crabapples - if they're still in tight buds, nothing. If there were flower buds coming out, they might have been damaged, but it takes quite a hard frost to do that.
