Default Frost/Freeze

Ok, I'm getting abit concerned here and don't know what to do. Hope someone can help me if the situation can be helped.

So, the question first. Just how cold of temperatures can apple and peach tree's stand when in full blossom without losing the crop?

Reason for asking...my yard has 2 apple trees and at least 4 peach trees that this year are just loaded with blossoms. In the year and a half I've lived here, I haven't had a single peach, and the only apples where when I moved in in October of 2019. They were still on the tree and still really good, but I didn't get them picked like I should have due to just having moved in and other stuff taking priority.

Is there anything at all I can do to protect them this week? Other than pray that the weather service has it all wrong? Forecast is calling for 27 Tuesday night and 29 Wednesday night
