Signet, I wish I could share some heat with you. They are calling for a high of 79F. That's as hot as it ever needs to get. It will probably be over 80F here at the house.

Another warm sunny day here, only 30F right now but like yesterday should warm up to about 65F. I had a great time in the garden, so good to get out and play in the dirt. Hurray!

Seems to be getting really dark outside early. We are supposed to get rain at 7:30 or around then so I guess that is why the dark clouds.

I was fairly warm today and in the afternoon, quite humid. So my home grown seedlings were outside today from about 10 this morning till about 6:30 when I brought everything back inside.

Cloudy this morning and thunderstorms expected. We woke up this morning to the weather radio going off at 5:30. Figured we might as well get up because there is no going back to sleep after being jarred awake.
Any day you wake up on the sunny side of the grass is a good day.

We woke up to a winter wonderland again. I sure hope this is the last time. At least the plants are covered with snow to protect them from the cold. Supposed to get windy so maybe the snow will get blown off the plants. Either way, the snow won't last long.

They are calling for a high today of 82F. You probably know by now that the 80s do not thrill me.

We have rain in the morning and then the sun comes out and the temperature gets to 70F for the last couple of days. Today was very windy but nice to be just outside. Able to do some weeding

Currently -10C (14F), expecting snow tonight into tomorrow, forecast high today -3C (26.6F). Low tomorrow night forecast to be -15C (5F), with -18C (-0.4F) forecast for a little north of us. And that's not the end of it, there's more snow predicted for later in the week. Grumbling Sighing! Right now the ground is bare with a few brave snowdrops in flower and the sun is shining but it's somewhat windy. Only a few daylily noses barely visible yet, among their dead leaves from last year.

Here in Western CT, it was in the 70's on Thursday and Friday and a bit cooler yesterday with some light rain. Overnight, the temps fell pretty good and we got an inch or two of snow. Right now it is 34 degrees and quite gusty out! We are supposed to see some major wind today! It will be the middle to end of the week before we are back up to the 50's & 60's!!

Same situation here as Sooby, although we still have snow on the ground. Some of my gardens are now exposed and some are still snow covered. There is not much showing, with only a few daylilies and peonies showing slightly, and one brave clump of daffodils coming up. I hope we don't get too much more new snow Crossing Fingers!
