I heard about your storm. Boy that's rare to have another so quickly!

Its been in the upper 40s in NYC the past 2 days. I feel sorry for people vacationing down south - its been a disapointing warm weather location this season.

Winter doesn't stick* around long this time of year.
I think it's pretty much worn out it's welcome everywhere at this point!

I'm sick of iteven though we really lucked out snow-wise. We got nothing from any of the last few storms. Just some rain last week. Seeing a yellow bud on first crocus! A couple of more days in the upper 40's as it has been and it should open. My Gardenia "Frostproof" is totally living up to its name so far. Not even a bent leaf! Fingers crossed.........
Camellias are all fine, even the buds on the spring blooming ones. Yucca recurvifolia looks great. Aucuba is perfect too. Prickly pears are fine and the ice plants I think are OK too.

I think spring is coming here (especially after this storm is over) but im not convinced that we wont see some cooler weather again. This weekend into next week temps will be in the mid 40s to low 50s with nights at or above freezing. Looks like we might see a little snow from this storm coming, but little or no accumulations because it will mostly be rain. All my plants that I tried to overwinter outside seems to have made it. My camellia looks like it will have a ton of blooms again this winter and they are only a few weeks from blooming. This weekend I plan on uncovering my palms.
Good luck everyone, hope spring comes soon!

I agree bill Im sick of it to.The Forsythias are starting to bloom and the Daffodils and Iris are starting to come up.It's suppost to get down to *29 tonight,so all this snow will freeze.I hope it doesent burn them to bad.Yellow bells are the frist blooming bushes around here,usually when they start blooming,there's not much winter left.I hope there on the mark this year.The latest It has snowed in Douglasville that I remember was last year,it snowed on the frist sunday in April.Were never out of the woods for snow or freezing temps.till mid april.Well I dont know about yall but Im dreaming of a early spring,LOL.Good luck to everyone on the east coast up north,it's heading your way.

Spring is Springing forth. Who can stop her? I notice the temps almost everywhere are rebounding, breaking past the freezing marks; especially northern zones. We saw 50 the other day.

Sure temp swings can be expected but, I like to agree with Jim, "winter doesn't stick around long this time of year".

Even with all the snow our temps in the NYC area were not that bad 13 or 14* F was the lowest. The cold was enduring though with less of our usual 50* thaws.

TZ hope you're right and we see 50s soon :)
