Most of the snow stayed North of us. We got less than one inch. Expecting a little snow overnight.

Last night we got down to -26C (-15F), currently at 9 a.m. it has warmed up to -19C(-2F). At least the sun is shining. If the robins and red-wing blackbirds come back from the south any time soon I hope they bring their winter hats, boots, scarves etc.

We are on the warmer side of this cold snap, went down to 11f last night expecting a little colder tonight. North of me they are suppose to be in the minus numbers. I've be watching for red-wing blackbirds after hearing several reports they are on their way. None yet. The forecast for next week is looking nice, warmer near 60f mid week. Thumbs up

Looks like we got another dusting of snow overnight. It is still a bit dark out so I can't tell if it is still snowing.

Gosh, so sorry for those of you getting snow. Now that it is March it feels like time for snow should be over and spring should be here already.

We had a nit picky amount of snow overnight. Nothing but a slight amount on the shady areas of lawn is left now. I am glad the storm mussed us. I am ready for spring and ready to get out in the garden. Not thinking about shoveling snow.

Nothing drowning or looking miserable here. Every thing has dried up and blown away. Crying

Not drowning or dried up and blown away, everything is frozen solid here. Actually it wasn't as bad as they said it would be, 11f again last night and up to the low 30's today. Still no red-wing blackbirds but I did see two Canada geese flying north early this morning...(they were wearing down parkas Big Grin )

11F would be a shock to Tucson! Lowest I have been in here is 17 F. Whistling Plants were not happy nor were the pipes. Hilarious!
