To further support what Bill said, while they don't always overwinter, we've had winter reports of Yellow-rumpeds in Minnesota from 19 of the past 20 years. (See http://moumn.org/loon/reports/?species=Yellow-rumped Warbler)

To my amazement, I was able to find 3 that had survived the frigid spell !
