WOW! That's a lot of now for this time of year. We're supposed to get some flurries today with a high of only 44 but then its supposed to start warming back up again. Did you have your Washingtonias and Butia uncovered?

Oooof! I dont envy you. Ive been fed up with the stubborn marine layer we have had for the better part of march keeping things in the upper 40s for highs until recently. Lots of cloudy, dismal, dreary days, and not warm at all, but at least its rarely gone near 32F. Seems like its finally broken out of that pattern though. It seems we have finally turned the corner and its full on spring now. Trees are greening up nicely and all of the deciduous magnolias, bradford pears, redbuds, cherry, forsythia are in bloom, as are ALL bulbs now, including the usually much later blooming tulips. Its 70, sunny, and very windy today, and the LOWEST HIGH temp over the next 6 days will be 55F, with most in the mid 60s, and the lowest low i saw for that time period was 38. I hope that cold out your way doesnt make it here! Good luck with it!

Same here wx,I think we had close to 5" but it compacted and melted as it came down,I will post some pics in a little while.My B.eriospatha,Jade and some other stuff were on the porch,it did not get that cold(28F)but it was below freezing for about 18hrs,my 10 year old Jade is a little like jelly but not toast yet,I hope,last year it withstood 23F but that was down and up the next day,this was a little longer event and it was not hardened off as it was inside all winter.

I covered my washy's and butia back up on Friday. I didn't want snow getting on them. I left the trachy uncovered as this event shouldn't even phase it. Snow already melted off it today as the sun came out and we went up to 40F. I will uncover the palms again hopefully next weekend after this unsettled weather calms down.

Nice shots wxman! :)

Our snow started last night. Actually, it's ice storm last night. My young 10' purple leaf sandcherry almost died. My three 4' arborvitaes are down. :( This morning though was the snow and we had about 5 or 6 inches. It was very wet!

Hope ya warm up soon waxman .. Least your not in Fargo south dakota!

Sorry i meant North dakota lol.
