It snowed on Easter!

Can you believe it? It was snowing this morning and then again this afternoon. Then it started to rain some yet again. Haven't we had enough of this weather? When will it all stop? Easter is supposed to symbolize springtime. Not this year, I guess. It is still cold and snowing. I want it to be warm and sunny. I cannot wait for the warmer weather. At least this summer may not be as hot as last year.

lol, it snowed over here as well, and I live in Illinois XD It's probably Global Warming or something, I remember 10 years ago, weather was not so warm or cold at times...

Well it was actually nice to see sense i haven't seen it snow in over a month.. I know I know some people are sick of it.. But you have to remember it's still March and Spring is around the conner but before it turns spring the snow has to go some where so it falls down and the weather will than get better! I love it though it was nice!!!

Well there's a perfect reason than not to like it and wished it would just get warmer... I think if that was me I would feel the same way... I hope things get better for you!!! Best wishes to you!

I am one of the ones who is sick of it. I had the ice storm really bad. I really dislike snow and ice this year. Especially since a tree fell on my car during that storm.

For sure, mother nature does crazy things. Just a few days ago we had 12 inches of rain and 1,000 families got displaced just before easter.

We got 12 inches of rain too. My basement flooded. I am still battling the drain not draining right 4 days later.

We had a gorgeous day here in Maryland. The heat was off, saving money, LOL. I heard this morning it only got to 50 degrees but it felt warmer than that. I'm kinda of bummed that winter is really over, since Maryland hardly got any snow!!!! Wah!!!! I know your area of the country got more than your share this year. But I love spring, I heard the little birdies chirping this morning!!!

We actually got more ice than snow. We had 2 ice storms within a couple weeks of each other. Thank goodness the second one wasn't as bad as the first. That's when the tree fell on my car and I didn't have power for 8 days. Had to move in with my parents. Boy it sucked.

I can believe because you got our snow. Sorry to send it your way my friend. I didn't mean to. We had it on Friday all day and a little part of Saturday. Most of it has melted off already and it seems warm out today! Finally! Hope you had a good Easter anyway.

My friend in New york says that I send all the weather her way. She jokes that she has to call me to get the weather.

Actually, it snowed the day before Easter where I live. It didn't actually snow on easter, it was a nice day that day. It was a good thing too, since the children in the family were expecting to go on an easter egg hunt, and they were able to. I personally really dislike cold weather, so I'm ecstatic that summer is almost here. I would much rather be sweating and hot than freezing cold. I figure it is much easier to cool down than it is to warm up. On the other hand, my boyfriend loves the cold, and hates the heat!

I would love it to just be in between somewhere. It's now 40 degress here. I just want it to be warm enough for us to not have to wear winter coats. It's ridiculus. And since the weather has turned cold after being 60 and 70 degrees, I've developed a cold. I've lost my voice for 4 days now. It sucks.

Same here... I'm in West Sussex. It's freezing out there again tonight, too. I just wish it would hurry up and warm up. All the flowers came out in the February Sun and now, they're being ruined by gales, heavy rain, frost and snow. What sort of weather is that for the end of March? The clocks change to summer time next week. Let's hope that brings a change in the weather too. I want to get out!!! Brightest Blessings.

Our clocks already changed. Didn't help with the weather. Last week it flooded and this week it's snowing. Ick.

Yep we got it here in Nebraska too. Dang cold winter. I too can not wait for spring. I am really sick of winter this year. I hope it isn't too cold this summer or rainy. Seems last year we had a lot of rain over the summer. Was great for the dried up lakes but no fun for swimming in them as they were cold. I hope we both get our wish and we start to warm up quickly. The heat will help a lot of peoples moods too I think*L* Seems everyone is sick of winter and are a bit more cranky I think.

Possibly. It's making people sick too. The weather cannot decide which way to turn.

It has flurried here off and on all day and I am with you- bring on spring! I am ready for warm weather and nice days. I am tired of cold and wet days. I remember when it has been really nice on Easter, but there is not going to be outdoors egg hunts today as it is cold and snowy.

Whoa! There are really strange happening around. In my country, it was supposed to be warm and sunny. Our city conducts a flower festival every February and March is to be a hot season, but I am wondering why is it almost raining everyday! We cannot detect so far the effects of global warming. It is something that should warn everyone of us. We are seeing the consequences now. Just my loud guess!

That is true. We don't know what the effects will be.

No kidding! I was getting dressed for church and, looking outside, my sweaters with penguins, or the moose/cabin winter scene, etc seemed appropriate, but it just seemed so wrong considering it is EASTER! Ugh! (I opted for a sweater in spring-type colors...lol)

I wore a purple "To write love on her arms" tee. I also wore my winter coat. I started to wear flip flops too, then I saw the snow. Put my clogs on instead.

Yup, extremely strange. I remember one year when I was in jr. high when it snowed on Halloween. That was weird too. I wish I could wake up tomorrow and see the sun shining. Maybe if I keep thinking that, it will happen.

Wow I have never heard of that. But I guess you can say that the weather is so unpredictable. These days it will snow one day, then they next day it is like ninety degrees.

My niece called this morning before they headed out the door to come down here for dinner and said that it was snowing there too. It was cold here, but no snow. They got hit by some more snow on the way back home too.

It's been a really crazy winter season for you Northerners and Mid Westerners! Another reason I think is that Easter was a bit early this year since its usually in April. Hopefully you guys will enjoy some warm sunshine soon!
