Ha. This just showed up on the forum . I posted this 3 hours ago and now it shows up after I had reposted what I had written in the beginning . Wow !

Thankfully it will end sooner for you.

We had snow in Oct. that actually stayed on the ground for a few days before melting. I have never seen that happen before.

In early Nov. the snow returned and has stayed all winter. No Jan. thaw that we usually get. We actually broke records for snow in Jan.

The snow just keeps coming and we have well over 3 ft. everywhere, deeper where it has drifted. Several bouts of freezing rain too. Just a nasty looong winter. I just want (need) it to be over!

Now that March is here we are starting a cold snap that may last a couple weeks or more. And more rain...

I sure do hear you Perren.all . It can't come soon enough for me . Take heart though Weather Canada says winter is supposed to end abruptly mid March and spring will hit with a vengence . I am hoping for once they are right .

Thanks LilyKate I will take all that type of cruelty I can get !

So sorry. Like Kate, I have a good many earlies blooming...in fact, the first tulips are all but through. BUT three days of cold are coming. It is cold in the south, not Canada cold though. 20s t night and forties in the daytime. then it is supposed to behave again.

We have been having warmer than normal weather for a while, rainy but warm. Cold front coming through Sunday though with night temp dropping to low teens, just as daylilies are starting to show nice growth. And if you thought I was at least going to not complain about rain, WRONG! More coming, but right now it is just a drizzling, dismal day.

Like Nancy, central KY is rain rain rain. We had 3 or 4 days of no rain this week [Sunday-Wednesday] and that was a record. Some of the mud in the back yard looked almost dry on top. Sunday we will get a larger rain and possibly some snow. There are new ponds absolutely everywhere you look, some amazingly huge. Waterfalls that can't fall much because the rivers and creeks are so high.

Also, one house being built locally looked kinda like an ark.... :)

Interesting news items I saw regarding the weather--in NY near the lakes whole homes are covered with thick sheets of ice, frozen shut solid. You can find the images on the internet. Los Angeles went all Feb. without getting to 70 degrees, a first in recorded weather history.
