Yeah, this cold spell is crazy. National Weather Service is forecasting 20 for my area tonight. We've been through mid twenties last week, with only some minor damage, but tonight will probably do a number on all the things that have flowered and leafed out. No matter how well established things are, this cold spell is going to set some of them back. I'm not expecting much local tree/shrub fruit this year, as the February cold killed apricot and peach buds, and now this should eliminate the possibility of apple, pear, and cherry crops in many areas... darn.

With these, you can prune around or just after bloom. You should be fine.
