hello everybody here at Mylot. is is only five o'clock here in Middle Tennessee this afternoon, and it is already trying to get dark outside for the day. a few days ago, when that we had almost eighty degree weather outside, it didn't get dark outside until almost eight o'clock on those warm nights. but today, for the most part of the day, it has rained all day long. it will down pour, then it will just drizzle, then it will rain again. maybe tomorrow the sun will be out and it will be a little bit warmer here than it was today. i am so ready to raise up all of my bedroom windows again this year. so tell me, how has your day been today? did you have rain? or did you have sun? have you raised your windows up in your house this year yet to let in some fresh air? thanks for sharing and have a beautiful afternoon.

It is good, right. I can even see my sky filled up with clouds and give a look that it is dark even if it is at 12 in the noon! BUt that phase is 4 months away from now. This is the end time for spring and we are welcoming summer season. i must say that with the global warming, summer season is becoming warmer every year. Last year we broke a record for last 60 years! Remember 60 years earlier! Things are getting worse every day!

Sunny in the morning then increasingly cloudy but none of the rain that Mr. Weatherman promised. And I didn't get a walk. Grumble...

It has been getting dark fairly early here also but the time has changed one hour too. I am sure we will start having longer days soon. It is starting to take longer for daylight now also.

Hi TnWoman! Yesterday, it was shining so brightly. It was very hot. During the day today, the sun was hiding the whole day. It was nice since it is a break from the scourging heat we had been experiencing for the past days. That is why during the rest of the afternoon, I was outside enjoying the coolness of the day. I hope tomorrow, we will have another kind of day like we had this day. Take care and blessings to you! lovelots..faith

We had some drizzle today. It was just enough to be annoying, yet not enough to do any good. The sidewalk barely got wet. I hope they had more up north were it is more important. I am looking forward to opening up all my windows and letting in all the nice warm air.

Yeah. We just turned our clocks back, and by the time I get home from the coffee shop at 6:30, it's pitch black outside!!! Way too early to get dark. Why don't we just keep it on Daylight Savings forever? That would be great. It wouldn't get so dark early. LOL

Hi Tn! Here all this week it has been sunny and quite warm during the day but darn cold again at nights. Then today it got dark earlier here too and was cloudy. Rain is forecast again for tomorrow so I guess those were the first clouds arriving. Of course tomorrow is Sunday..... I want to get this place cleaned tight through and I'm waiting for some warmer days to arrive to be able to do it. It just doesn't seem the same doing the cleaning with the windows closed and you can't get the air changed too. It will come soon I hope!

Today was relatively nice, in the 50's, I live in New Jersey. There was not much sun but there was no rain either. tomorrow is focasted to be a nice day. It is now six fourty in the evening, and it is still daylight out, thanks to the daylights savings of last week. It will probably get dark at about seven thirty or quarter to eight. I love the longer hours of daylight.

Hi TnWoman, We have had a lot of winds of late but it was better today with some sunshine and yes I have had my window open a bit for fresh air and its staying a bit lighter now as spring is around the corner. Love and hugs. Tamara xxxx

Hi TnWoman! We are only having temps in the 40's here in NY! But, since we changed the clocks ahead last week the sun is out until 7:00pm, or should I say it is light until then! We haven't really been having temps much higher then maybe 50 degrees. But, no snow and that's a good thing! I am so ready for some Spring weather already! I have had enough of this winter for sure! It has been a very cold winter and I want it gone! We have had a few sort of warmish days, but not enough where we could actually raise the windows yet! I am hoping that will be coming very soon!

It's been a really nice day today. It was in the seventies today, no wind and lots of sunshine. I can't wait till next week when it's supposed to get up to 80 degrees.

Hi TnWOman...It is now 7:15 pm here and it is not dark yet. THe sun is just starting to go down It was a nice sunny day, all day, but still way too cold..below freezing! I have to admit, I did have my windows open today. I often do in winter, just to get fresh air. I live right now for another month in a condo, where I never have to turn on the heat. Its always so warm in here and when the sun is out, I actually have to open the window for air!

Today has been overcast and drizzly. So it will seem to get dark sooner because the clouds have been blocking part of the light all day. I have not been able to open any window yet although we too had a day last week that was 80 degrees. Tomorrow is suppose to be sunny and in the 60's. Hold on to Hope.

I could sit outside in a sweater, it was very nice. It's 48 right now at 6:15pm and we've had a little sun today but not all that much. Tomorrow will be gorgeous, near 60 and sunny! One of my tulips has already shot out a leaf and something else is coming up, too. I think I'll get out my summer clothes so that we can get the next cold spell over with! Every spring I do that and we get hit with a frost or something so I think I'll do it tomorrow so Spring will be free to appear soon!
