* Sigh * Snow at Sea Level

[Zen]

It's Spring, appreciate the fresh greenness and be patient...

Green? What green. We're still brown, muddy and cold here! bikerhen

I want it to get warm because then people will get all uninhibited. Radical things will happen. But yea, it's 37 here with 20 mph winds and rain. Of course, to the North it's snow. Time to pull some weather goddess favors...

I helped unload my moms u-haul in that downpour yesterday evening. I don't think I thawed out until I'd been under the electric blanket for an hour.

2.5 inches of snow last night. Rain/snow mix all day today. Temp now at 4:30 pm is 38 degrees. I need to go to Mexico or Hawaii.

[imdeanna]

It has been snowing heavy all morning here

it slowed to drizzle in the afternoon...but at 4:30...it's starting to snow again...



I love extreme weather.....but I mentally NEED the sun right now like crazy!!!!!

[cyclinnewbie]

I know, me too. I'm actually considering going TANNING just to get some sun-like heat. But I won't. I'll just try to get throught the weekend, because we're supposed to warm up to the 50's by Monday. Hallelujia!!

[solobiker]

Today, sunny and warm with temps in the upper 60s, tomorrow cold with rain snow mix. Think spring...

[sgtiger]

My goodness! Little hailstones(reminds me of Dipping Dots)were being dumped on use ~10 min. ago. Now it's turned to snow.


Yep, that's all hail and it's coming down fast! I've never seen anything like it here on the West Coast.

STIGER: You're scaring me... I was just about to head out for a run. Please don't send this north! It's looking a bit blustery out there -- I just need an hour!?

Spoken like someone who has never lived in the PNWG (Pacific Northwest Gray), where we (at least way out on the coast here) frequently have 4th of July's that are cold, gray and rainy. Patience is ROUGH when summer tends to come in late July and spring means gray, gray, gray.

The mild lack of snow in the supposed-spring season is our one consolation, and to have gravel and snow all over right now...well, it is discouraging.

But, I forgive you.

Time to go down to the garden in the basement with thebright lights where we just stuck a mess of tomatoes and peppers ! How long 'til they start sprouting?? (I haven't done this before... as a kid the grandparents had a garden in back and I'd help start the tomato seeds inside so I'm reviving it... it was a complete impulse brought on by somebody mentioning the Ford admin's Whip Inflation Now gardens. I have SIXTEEN thingies with tomato seeds planted in them. But if spring doens't come to me, I'll have to just MAKE it happen.)

Your garden sounds great! I need to get myself some lights.

I kinda have a light for my cat. I have this ancient, hot-burning reading lamp that is focused right on where my cat sleeps during the evening before she goes to her night-bed. It just burns down on her, and she lies there just soaking up the heat with her eyes shut tight. You can practically hear her saying AAAaaaaaaaah!!!!

I think I need some lights.
