Well it is officially Spring according to the calendar. But I live in Minnesota and we don't start enjoying Sopring until April or May even sometimes. This is due to the fact we can and have gotten snow into May sopme years. My birthday is May 25th and I recall snow falloing on it many years ago. Anyhow this shot shows my lovely spring day today. Snow, rain, ice, slippery roads and not very warm. A windchill of 8 degrees F. In spring? So what is your spring weather like? Are you still having cold windy cloudy days? Planting your gardens yet?

Hi webeishere

i don't know what to make of the UK weather, today is mild, yesterday was very cold and the day beofre it was mid summer!! wtf? lol When I go out i'm going to start packing a mac and a bikini. It's nothing like it used to be, I remember 8 straight weeks of summern sun during the school summer holidays, where the tar was melting on the orads during it's peak, now you need sun block 1000 lol. Sadly no garden to do planting in though.

Hey, im in UK too! Must agree with you, the weather is wild! past week it has been rather mild then all of a sudden its freezing with forcasts of snow over higher ground! Just as i thought spring/summer was nearly here after a 2 year wash out of bad weather and winter is coming back with a bang! Some spring so far! lol

Our snow is finally starting to melt. The big saying here is if you don't like the weather, never mind just wait about a half hour and you'll get a different season. It's just about the truth.

Yes, looked out the window yesterday and it was snowing. Looked out this morning, and it is still snowing. Cannot blame it on God, I knew there was no thing such as global warming. So I am wondering whether it is God trying to convince those who believe in global warming, that there is no such thing and HE is in charge.
Well I was considering going for a walk today, but I think I will do my walking in the house, going up and down the basement stairs.
No, have not planted my garden yet and anyway I will probably make it a container garden. I do have some houseplants and no I have not killed them yet. lol

Funny thing here... Awhile back a Global warming meeting in New York City, was cancelled due to snow. Go figure huh?

I always thought they held those global warming meetings in someplace like Indonesia where it is never cold. And I bet they were wearing their shorts and sleeveless t-shirts and had on sunglasses and plenty of sunblock to protect themselves from the extremely hot weather. lol

I remember springs like that GB. I hated them. I don't mind the cold weather but the ice snow and slippery roads are a huge no thank you.

Spring today is windy but not so cold and the sun is shining. Far cry from yesterday when it felt so cold we were expecting snow. No gardens planted here yet, just ideas on what will be planted so far.


myLot reputation of 96/100. webeishere (12986)   ranked 1 out of 109 in watching the weather  3 years ago

We are due for yet another severe winter storm yet this spring as usual. We always get one good strong ice/snow storm late March. Ugghh!

Hi, webeishere~Grandpa Bob! Here, in Sumter, South Carolina, it is very chilly in the mornings. It is like 46 degrees in the mornings and nights. But during the day it can be 72 degrees and up. And sometimes in the 60s. This weather is really tricky. And it will not really get warm until May here. This is Flu weather here! Take care in Minnesota, Grandpa Bob!happy

It's raining here Grandpa. I'm in GA. It's cool here due to the rain I guess.. but most days now it is in the 60s and 70s. Looks like your porch still has a remnant of snow on it. Take care... nice photo.

Yes, it is now Spring, and we have been having Spring weather the past couple weeks, had some Spring thunderstorms, its been getting in the upper 70's to 80's, the only thing about Spring thunderstorms around here is that we also get tornados in those storms and thats not good. Today its been a cloudy windy day, and we've really been having some strong winds the past few days getting up to 40 mph, the strange thing is for Sat. we've got a chance of snow coming..lol. Now thats crazy weather for us..I think everybody's been trying to plant their gardens because everythings turning green again, but they probably should wait till after this snow comes in.

No we dont start planting our garden until Memorial day weekend here....we dont start warming up until May. today we had rain we woke up to and it cleared up about 4 this afternoon and the sun came out... and warmed up to about 57, so I was able to open my doors and air out the house a bit.

Yes, the calendar does say spring, but I have to say it doesnt really arrive here until the first of May....we hopefully will get some nice days in April but those will be a hit and miss... unfortunately!!

so until then... happy mylotting!! happy
