We finally got some much needed rain here in Central Texas the last couple of days (6 inches). The rain came with what we call a cold front here (30's and 40's). Tomorrow is supposed to get into the 60's and next week into the 70's. Of course last week we were in the 80's. Hey what can I say....It's Texas....

Sounds like the weather we had last week. It should warm up for you pretty quick.

I'm so proud that it got above freezing today in Wisconsin! 49 degrees is an occasion to break out the bermuda shorts and sun screen! ;D

My dang snow pile is still there at the side of the driveway, though - but it's getting smaller each day! ;D Yippee! No PARKA!

It's looking great here. Raining cats and dogs. The weather man says it going to rain for two more days but this weather man says it over with and the sun shall shine upon us.
Keep your eye on the weather for Danville, Va. and see if I am not right. My back and hip says I will be tilling some more ground today. ;D
I have close to 300 plants started. Time to plant them so I am summing up the good weather. :D

we had a horrible cold snap all last week, but so far since the weekend we are seeing some warming. yesterday was in the 50's and had some wind and we know when we get wind its only blowing in a new storm. sure enough its snowing again today. i dont have much hope for it surviving until tomorrow tho, its really a pethetic attempt to claim back winter. I believe that winter has finally lost its battle here, but ill be more happy when i see the first robin of the season!

We got at least 2" officially here in SA and are no longer under a burn ban, at least for the time being. Was miserable from Wednesday through Saturday here and just a little better yesterday. Today seems much nicer though it will take some time for the mud to dry up. I was glad to see the sun again. LOL Just can't take the cold and damp anymore health wise but believe me I was extrememly happy to see the rain when it got here as we've been without for so long.

Well here is an update for Prescott, AZ. Trees are budding, bulbs are popping up as well. Onions are about an inch high and I think it is safe to say, SPRING IS HERE!!!!!!! Man am I sick of winter. I missed summer the day it left. I can see we are gonna have a weed problem. Oh and I seen ants today. Really!! ants. I got to get after them before they get out of hand. The wifes little dog had his eyes on them all day. Kinda funny cause he was bit about a dozen times last year. I think he remembers.

No snow here for a little bit which I am very glad about. I started some plants indoors this week and we got down to 32 last night :(. I am glad I have them in the house and not outside. I have decided to keep them in doors as long as possible because we have had such a problem with late snow/frost. This is my first year growing some of this stuff so I saved back half the seeds just incase something happened or they don't do well with transplant. I like everyone else am very glad for the good weather. it will be 60 today so we are going out for a BBQ and some kickball with the kids. Here's wishing you all weather like spring, and much needed sunshine! Raven

Spring might be on the way but not here in Northern Oklahoma.
Just finished listening to the weather report and we are under a winter storm warning. The predicition is for 6" to 12" of snow for tomorrow.

5" of rain in the last two days. We have been in a drought situation in south GA for several years, so it was welcomed. We have been in the 70's in the days and the 40-50's at night. Next week we have upper 30's weather forcasted at night. Well, it is Easter week, so I guess it is expected here.

Well there was snow slightly above our elevation on Tuesday morning, we had ice over the puddle in the driveway when we left at 8:30AM for playgroup. Wednesday was like may - highs in the 60's - we were outside most of the afternoon. Thursday was also nice but the weather turned yesterday and is supposed to stay rainy right through next Thursday. Guess I'll be reading alot this week!

It's supposed to snow this week. :shakes fist at sky:

But, we're getting the ground ready and digging out of our winter hibernation. The kids are chomping at the bit to plant their pumpkins. LOL
