Is it too late to plant daffodil and tulip bulbs in zone 6?

If they haven't gone thru the dormant period then probably it's too late. I'm in zone 6 and sleet covers the ground so it would be hard to plant where I am. They should always be refrigerated for several weeks prior to planting. It is probably too late to even force bloom them.

EDITED: I would plant as soon as possible because if they do not get planted they will dry out and die. They would probably bloom next year.
