Cindi - I'm with you in that.. I'm seeing all the beautiful rain CA is getting and the tons & tons of wet snow that the NE is getting.. and we're not getting diddly squat. All my snow's melted and spring's just around the corner because the willows are starting to orange up (when they wake up for spring, their new branches turn an orangey color) and the cottonwoods are starting to swell. The maples are berrying out, I've got irises starting to poke little triangles up, one of the few Dr. Huey's that I haven't shovel-pruned actually started to show some leaf buds down near the base.. I guess that's it for cold-cold hopefully. It was in the upper 60s & low/mid 70s this past week/weekend! People were running around in shorts & flipflops! I'm not minding the mild temps, but man could definitely use some moisture. Our snowpack's way down.. I think we're down here in the city by over half.
We *may* get some rain/snow/mush on Tues night/Wed morning, but not holding my breath. It's barely 9am and it's already 50degs out there. This is NOT February.
