We started at around 37F today..but right now it is slowly going up currently at 45F. Says we may go up to mid 60's but still dry.
Sunshiny outside, and quite calm.

Take care and keep warm snow laden friends. Smiling

Sorry for those of you who are dealing with the cold, but I'm thankful that it moved on from here for now.

Absolutely! I think in your location & mine it affects plants even more Linda. It was abnormally warm here --- still is -- & the plants that generally sleep or at least *realize* it's winter didn't realize it b/c we haven't really had winter weather so everybody thinks it's mild fall. Now they're going to get shocked all in one day. Tomorrow's high is to be 60 but then the big drop to night time. Blinking Blinking

I love that Linda -- perfect term --- whiplash weather. That describes it so well.

OMG! Blinking Blinking Blinking They just changed the forecast low again --- 22 tomorrow night!

I agree Ann. We had that snow last week and the 25 degrees before that event that fried most of my plants and now we ended up at 77 today. Gotta be tough to survive your extremes and ours. Blinking

nodding Tough as nails. I've learned (the hard way) to quit fretting & worrying about what will make it or not. If it makes it then great but if it doesn't then it wasn't a tough enough plant for me. You can't fight ma nature. Well, you can fight her but she'll win every time.

Lots of things I thought lost to the great freeze or Icemageddon or drought or flood shook it all off and kept right on astounding me by how much faith I should carry forward. Lovey dubby Right this minute, if my laundry pipes and outdoor faucets make it through 15 degree overnight low temperatures this week without breaking, I will be the happiest woman on the planet for anything else.
