However, the post topic gods have been very good to me for the lat few days.
It snowed again! That's right. Snow Sunday morning and now more snow on Tues morning. that's very lucky for post topics.
So this morning at 7 AM it started to snow and snowed for about 2 hours and when finished we had 5 cm (2 in ) of snow.
By 3:00 PM the snow was gone. we had a high of 5 C (40 F).
It's quite common to get snow in April and not unknown to get snow in May.
Well, it looks like the Universe is lining up to give you lots of options for posts, Red. Snow and then warmth? Sounds like spring to me! :-)
ReplyDeleteYes, you know ...a great mixture of weather.
DeleteBrrr. Well, as long as you are used to it, I guess It's OK. I would have a hard time waiting that long for spring.
ReplyDeleteWe all get used to our own little corners of the world.
DeleteSnow again, lucky you! Today it rained all day here and was quite chilly :) Don't worry about post topics, just write what you feel like writing :)
ReplyDeleteI don't like rain in the spring. I want to get the crop in and then let it rain. Write what I feel? that could be scary.
DeleteNo kidding? I can't recall it snowing in May (in Chicago), but yes we did get the occasional snowfall in April. I understand it's quite lovely in Chicago right now though. Yikes! It's cold up north!
ReplyDeleteYes, I get reminded all the time about how nice things are. My daughter lives in Lagrange and works about 40 mi north. she says there's often a big difference in weather.
Deletewe are having high temps here [40 plus]
ReplyDeleteso nature is giving you topics for sharing with us the climate of your very cold area ,being near to equator makes me exciting to read about such snowy lands
We live in the temperate zone so have four very different seasons. I also spent 5 years in the Arctic. I loved it.
DeleteWinter doesn't want to say goodby yet!
ReplyDeleteThat's an excellent way to put things.
DeleteWe're expecting rain. I suppose it's all to fill the water table!
ReplyDeleteAs long as the water table doesn't get too high and flooding occurs.
DeleteI'm happy to be finished with snow for the year.
ReplyDeleteYou guys had a lot of snow for your area.
DeleteNice photos. But as for me, I'm glad I've put my boots away and can now walk to town and see daffodils along the way.
ReplyDeleteWe don't have any daffodils yet but it's getting close.
DeleteOh, Lord. That just makes me cold.
ReplyDeleteSteve , you still have too much Florida in you!
DeleteTerrific shots! I still think we could see some more here before we're done, but at the moment, it's mostly just piles that are slowly melting.
ReplyDeleteI would bet you'd see more snow!
DeleteSnow again!! I can remember getting snow one April several years ago, but snow in April is rare for us. Here in North Carolina we have been having some 80 degree temps.
ReplyDeleteSnow in the Carolinas in April would be very odd.
DeleteBummer! Even with climate change?
ReplyDeleteClimate change is to give us extremes...too hot, too cold, too wet, too dry.
DeleteThis sounds a lot like where we live, Red :) We usually get one storm near the end of April. Then we can generally relax.
ReplyDeleteSometimes the April storms are very severe.
DeleteYour winter doesn't want to say goodbye and ours is not showing any signs of appearing. It is slightly cooler in the evenings but that's all. I love this time of year!
ReplyDeleteMay I suggest that if there is another significant snowfall - you could step outside and make a snow-woman in the shape of The Micro Manager. This creation could be the basis of another great blogpost.
ReplyDeleteLiving in Canada, you get used to this. I once saw snow in August on a day where it got unbelievably cold for that time of year. It melted as it landed but it was still surprising to see!
ReplyDeleteMy goodness, on our travels I'm told it is going to be 90 degrees tomorrow. I think I would rather have your snow, foolish woman that I am :)
ReplyDeleteWell at least you didn't have to shovel it...:)
