No flowers here and still hoping for more rain. So odd that it rains north and south of us. We are like the "middle child" that doesn't get the attention of the one above and the one below.

Hope you will get some rain soon.

There's no keeping up with all the mud we're all dragging in."We'll have some mud once all the snow melts. Quite a lot of sand in the driveway. Once the weather is warm and we hook up hose, we'll be sweeping and washing down the driveway to get rid of all that sand!
Looks like we are back to winter on Easter, unfortunately for the little ones on an Easter Egg hunt; snow showers and high in the upper thirties..Bah Humbug. But hope you all have a Happy Easter wherever you are and that your weather if much better than ours.
Not nice weather here tomorrow. Today is sixty five degrees but is going down to the twenties overnight and snow showers tomorrow and only in the thirties. Poor Easter Bunny delivering eggs in a snowstorm.
We were close to freezing this morning, but slowly warmed up to almost 60 today. I think tomorrow morning is supposed to be nice with storms blowing in later. I hope it dries out some more. The grass is coming in strong, but we're still feeding hay & I have to move some. It's just too soupy today after a week of daily rain.
Temps got up to 50 today. Things are looking up!
Is this an April Fool's joke or what mother nature is sending us snow on Easter? What does she think this is, Christmas?
Yes, it sounds like an April Fool's joke, snow on Easter Sunday. Fortunately, we had a sunny day near 50F.
We're sodden, with possible snow on Thursday. The grass was growing by the inch today & my neighbor just had to get out. He's 94 & said he was tired of sitting inside talking to himself. I had just finished moving the hay from one barn to another making mud tracks in the grass when I noticed he was stuck, so I drove over there & helped him get out. I can sympathize with him, but it's just too wet to mow.
Bad situation. Maybe time will improve things.
Fog and black ice this morning's commuters. Hope my daughter is safe driving on freeways. Very much warmer in the morning, hopefully.
Still colder than usual for here in April. Such weird weather. It is supposed to set a record cold tonight; low in the twenties and on Thursday it is to be sixty eight degrees. Once someone asked a new arrival if this city had four seasons and he answered them, "Yes, sometimes all in one day." He wasn't far off
Fourteen degrees tomorrow night and seventy five degrees next Wednesday. Not more than three inches of snow in four years.
I guess we're stealing all your snow, Nina. It was 72 here on Tuesday & 23 on Thursday morning. It was 34 this morning. Tonight we're supposed to get 3-6" of snow which would be a record for April. Mother Nature is off her meds. Sigh.
Right now it's snowing here. Hope it won't amount to much.
Before this year I had never heard of snow showers but that is what we're having tonight. I must plant flowers and how do I do that when the temp tonight is in the record setting teens?
I haven't been able to plant any veges yet, either. Sigh.
Put hummingbird feeders out on Monday. Took them back in yesterday. Water was frozen. Got 3 icky inches of snow! Snow not on driveway but on lawn and deck.
Hope it warms up soon!
It was 45 when I went to bed last night & I heard it start raining, but it changed. This morning it's 26 with ice & a 1/2" of snow. Yuck. It's still snowing, but not much. Just a steady, light snow with very small flakes. It's spring! I have seeds for the gardens!!! Quit with winter already!!!
I too wish winter would quit!
Maybe next weekend we'll finally see spring..but I hate to get my hopes up.
Nice sunny, although cold day. No threats of snow!
Wish it would warm up. Our current temp at 8:39 AM is 28.8 F.
Me too. Even thirty seven isn't warm for April here. We set a record for low temps the other night as it was in the teens. Average temp at night here is in the forties. Let it get there please.
Still cold. Sunny though. Keep hearing the word "snow" on the weather reports. Although the snow may not stick - it just shouldn't be here at this time of year.
Snow is a 4 letter word!
Eighty degrees yesterday and today but still leery of planting my pansies as the weekend nights are predicted to be in the twenties. Such a strange April so far.
How is your weather Jim? We are in the eighties and perhaps you will be soon. Very cold over weekend however; down to twenties at night.
It hit 72 today. Gorgeous out. Too hot, actually. Unfortunately, I have a cold & it's making my life miserable. Don't have the energy to enjoy it properly.
Yes, colds take the joy out of life. Hope you are feeling better soon. Even if it's seventy eat some chicken soup and drink lots of liquid. And how do I tell you to rest? Do you ever? I haven't been getting any Goodreads..what are...? Only movies and weather; none from you, Joy or Linda either. Have any been posted?
You've replied to the only post I've made here, I think. I am taking it easy, but I have so much that needs to be done. I need to get some of the early stuff planted in the garden, but that requires turning it a bit to get rid of the weeds & cleaning the goats' house. I use their bedding as the mulch for the garden. Maybe tomorrow morning. I need to mow the lawn, but the mower wants its oil changed. I'll try to get to that tonight.
Thanks Jim, for the reply. Good luck with your chores and hope your cold has abated.
We're under a Tornado Watch tonight. Wish us luck.
Good luck, Nina. We hit 80 today, but I was feeling too punk to get anything done. It's supposed to rain all weekend, so I guess I'll take it easy. It's supposed to get colder too, almost down to freezing by Sunday morning. No wonder I have a cold!
Two days here this week in the eighties and now it's getting very cold again with lows at night in the twenties. How can I ever plant some flowers?
Hope it warms up soon.
The rain held off until about 11am, so I was able to change the oil in the mower, grease it, & get the lawn mowed. No dew, thankfully. Still nice out, in the 60s.
we are expecting a wintry mix late today into tomorrow morning. guess Mother Nature does not realize this is SPRING!Temp now is cloudy, 30 degrees and quite windy.
Our weather forecast certainly does not look good for the entire week! Take a look:https://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick...
Someone should tell Mother Nature it's Spring. Tomorrow here very cold in the twenties early morning and then on Tuesday it is sixty eight. How do you regulate your body to those temps?
