Too cold for beans? and a carrot question...

I planted three kinds of beans early last week. The weather had been
quite warm, the soil was warm, and the beans were soaked overnight
before planting.
A week is not much time, I would give them another two weeks before
worrying. There isn't much you can do about it aside from sow again later
when the weather is warmer.
A few days later a cold snap started. Temps down into the high 40s
overnight, low 60s daytime. Today it's in the mid-50s and raining. I
don't see any beans coming up yet, except maybe a couple of the
limas. It's supposed to warm up again tomorrow but remain wet the
rest of the week.
Am I worrying needlessly that the beans will rot?
