Fall planting for Daffodils and Hyacinth

I Live in Henderson County and I am wondering if it is too late to plant these bulbs. I bought them yesterday at Sam's in Tyler,Texas and they haven't been refridgerated, or cooled. I love them in the Spring, but I wonder if I have waited too late. Can someone from this area tell me if they will do alright if I plant them in them the next day or two?

Caroleanne,
I just moved to GBC and planted mine about a week before your post. I am not sure if it is too ealry, but I used to live in Grayson Co. on Red River and planted late Fall and they always worked. I do know up ther that if you plant late Summer / Early Fall the Squirrels will doig them up and eat them sometimes.
