Interesting... Spring is here now... so take some solace in that... I would say normal to maybe a week late... My Dad loves to tell stories of Hard Freezes even till July 4th up in Northern Michigan.... so late springs and cold weather is not totally unheard of... I don't think I could take that sort of Winter weather... but the Summers up there sure are nice... My peaches and plums are mostly all in bloom..... Apples aren't yet, though... My concern is late killing freezes since the flowers are out... Easter is our traditional "Safe" date.... I gotta say... I am thankful that we didn't get another super duper early spring - followed by WAVES and WAVES of Bugs and Disease like last year.... Thanks

It must be something in the air. Yesterday my Mister Big Froggie made his first appearance with a big splash when I went back to check the pond. He's been sleeping under a slate rock up till now. Later I saw him bobbing near the "off ramp" I made him. He looks good for fasting all winter long!

cynqueen - Yahoooooo! Isn't it a great feeling to see your first sprouts?! This is my 3rd year and I still get a thrill from seeing the new ones every day. Leave your lids on! If you have to, throw a sheet over them if you happen to get a really warm day and they're in full sun. We have more than a few nights coming that will still be below freezing! I usually starting taking tops off when the days are consistenetly in the upper 70's and the nights are in the upper 40s and lower 50s. I have never had "drying out" problems as we usually get more than enough rain during this time of year. Once the tops are off, they dry out much faster and that's when you have to start worrying about watering them, which can be a big hassle!

You can add me to that list as well -- I want to put one of my large roebies (currently still in the garage) in the front of the house for the season but will probably need to wait another 2 months to be safe.

5 when I got up and now up to 6. A warming trend. I just saw a heating company truck arrive at my neighbor's house. The owner answered the door all bundled up and wearing a hat. Their windows look all frozen on the inside. Glad I am not them!

I have to go to a meeting tonight at 7:30. I am not looking forward to it. I better be sure the car starts. Thank goodness I just had the antifreeze checked.

It was -4 at 9 a.m., and now (almost noon) we're up to 1. At least it's on the plus side! And I'm relieved no trees came down last night. The wind was screaming.

I'm a little nervous about my dwindling firewood supply, so I'm letting the stove fire go out and will use the oil burner during the day today. Maybe heating the basement (which the oil burner does) will improve the temperature of my floor. As it is, the disposable foot warmers I use every day are not doing the job.

It was 5 below last night and is 5 above now. Some of my windows are frozen on the inside which has never happened before. .

I meant to add that it's so odd to have temperatures this low in bright sunlight.

I noticed the pretty little frost patterns on one window too, Lily. It looks like what we used to try to create with spray snow when I was a child.

It was 0 when I got up this morning. 20 degrees warmer than yesterday morning. Supposed to warm up even more at noon and then our deep chill warning expires. I will be so happy to get out this afternoon and volunteer at the hospital. It doesn't take me long to get cabin fever.

We're now at 6 degrees, up from -2 this am. My house is 56 but feels like 30.

Much warmer today a minus 4 but because of lack of cloud cover and not much snow, expect temps way down tonight then headed toward mid 30's (above) end of week

We got down to 8 below last night, but it's now 6 above and it will continue to improve today.

About 20 something below.

Not much hot air around here - and no arguments on that one, please!

-4 at 3:30 this morning with a -25 wind chill. The wind was insane last night. Thought we would get blown off our little hill. Right now at 5:37 pm eastern time it is +6 degrees.

My kitchen window was frozen this morning also LIly! Has never done that before. I was afraid it would crack or break.
