How is your weather? (Part 2)

2 days out of 10 with high temps above freezing

From the house, front yard


back yard, the little dark “finger” sticking up towards the lower left corner is a common juniper. It’s about 3’ tall and 6-8’ wide.

Front of house. There’s a full sized pickup parked to the left of the house.

I remember that from my youth. March is when it thawed out and the creek flooded.

Those pictures of all snow bring back a few good memories of hiking through the woods when it was near or above freezing and no wind. But many days of wind and blowing snow is misery.

Even you don’t like it or you won’t post so much about it.

Meanwhile it’s beautiful and 70s here day after day. Our only bad weather this time of year is windy. But it’s seldom cold enough even windy to keep me inside.

Didnt realize I post so much about it. I don’t mind winter in November and December. When it looks like early January in early March I’m not a fan

Got a start to a summer tan on face and arms (the farmer’s tan)…outdoors in sun doing grafting and other chores. Been like that a number of days…but cooler stuff has moved in.
(I hoped La Nina lasted through April…so my blossoms didn’t get killed that are blooming.)

I feel for you. I’ve been frozen many times and it’s no fun. West Texas does have bad weather. Amarillo was wind, hail, freezes, rinse and repeat. Alpine is 400 miles further south and better on all fronts.

I do enjoy your posts. Keep it up…!! Next one will be 238 in this thread. And you’ve earned the right to post every one…!!

i dont mind winter when its above 0 and less snow. getting older and shoveling 3ft. of snow off roofs sucks.

we just got about a foot this week total. all my winter sow containers under it, good, my crocus and hellebore? NO

things are still dormant so, that’s fine. I don’t mind it this time of year at all. what I worry on is late frosts in end of April/May after things are moving.

I’m going to dormant spray as soon as the snow is off the branches. that’s my calendar this year.

excuse the mess,I am just looking at my gooseberry patch in all its winter glory

This reminds me that I should start to winter sow of lettuce and spinach soon

Absolutely blistered with rain today. Storm destroyed a GFCI of mine today.

If I had to guess I would say we got the all month average of rain just today in 3 hours. Insane long downpour. Tornado just minutes from my place.

It rained last night and early this morning. My fruit trees seem to like it, but no bees today, I did see some yesterday.

I noticed VA getting some on the radar. Drizzled here. May get into 22-23 degree territory here by Tuesday night…but no fluffy stuff.

Plowed 3-5" yesterday. Plowed another 4-6" this morning. This year is already top 10 all time for snow and there’s a lot of winter left

Tornado watches. About to get hammered again! 20-30 mph winds all morning expected to go on all day.

Been snowing on and off here since Friday. Maybe 6-8 inches total–the stuff last night was very sloppy. Maybe back into the 50Fs late week, but more cold coming after.
