Snow again..crap! WE had about four inches today with more in the forecast. First it started with 2 1/2 inches of rain...then it turned to freezing rain and now snow. I don't know about anyone else but it's getting very old! I had put away my winter coat but I had to take the dang thing out again! So do you know where spring is hiding?

Well it is not here even though the robin thinks so. The news says it is coming our way tonight. Isn't it strange that storms come up from the south this time of year. I wish we could put in a bottle and let it out slowly when it gets so hot.

Personally I think it really depends on where a person lives, as to what type of weather to expect where. And a lot of people in many states are seeing colder weather than normal for sure. We are in the 70s again here while others are getting snow. I seen actually the forecast for today here in Washington is supposed to be warmer than a lot of states even. Strange weather for sure and I just hope when it finally decides to warm up everywhere, we don't have a hot heat wave instead.

I heard on the news the weather in your area wasn't so nice. Did it melt yet or still cold? We had tornadoes come through our area last Wed. evening. Had all of us concerned enough to get to the basement and seek shelter. It actually touched down about 10 miles from us and the wind was out of control. I put jackets away, take them back out again, put away again. This is the time of the year too we have on the a/c, turn heat on again and go back to a/c. Right now the heat is on again! Been a crazy spring so far but hopefully it will get better. Let me know if you find spring and where it has been hiding. I can't find it!

Jingle bells, Jingle bells, Jingle all the way,
We hope that Spring will come our way, and bring a sunny day! Hey!
Oh, I'm such the poet. All I know is here in Ohio it's cold right now and rainy and I hate those two put together. No snow but rain. I feel sorry for you and I hope it really starts warming up all over the place. We're suppose to get some warmer weather next week......maybe you will too. Keep your fingers and toes crossed.

You are getting snow while here in the midwest we are getting rain and more rain! Some rivers are at flood stage! The stable where i work the indoor area flooded and the creek that goes under the drive way has flooded over the drive way! The horse,boarded inside,have been inside since sunday! I know some homes are having flooding problems in their basements! The parking lot at work flooded! So bad only there was very few parking spots to use! Have no idea when the rain will end! I am so sick of the rain! The weather has made me sick and I am depressed not seeing the sun! I'd like to know where spring is hiding,too!

Up at our summer place, water turn on is up for grabs! We used to know almost exactly the date the plumbers could turn it on. No one has gotten a date yet. I've noticed for the last few years the seasons hang on for dear life to the final date. Then the switch flips and viola, the new season begins. We used to get some new season teasers like sudden 50 degree weather for a day or two. That doesn't happen anymoe more. I put $10 on April 21.

The weather just got warmer here about a week ago. I'm on the east coast. It's probably around the corner, just the last of winter pushing itsway out before the warmth. It's a pain in the butt, but it'll be there before you know it. Have patience :-)

hi jillhill okay ,my response just flew off so cop y post now. Spring is over here in Southern California its sunny and about 73out Fahrenheit and windy bit a pleasant day. So I do think "spring has
sprung, the grass is riz," and I know where all the birdies is. they are seagulls swinging down to eat leftover fist from the dumpster behind the Vietnamese grocery stored I do not remember where I got that silly little poem about spring being sprung.,

I thought that springtime had arrived, but it apparently isn't fully here yet. I'd sort of made the "oh, it's spring" declaration and considered packing away my winter clothing. Thankfully, I didn't start the process; I don't think that I will bother to change things out until at least the end of the month.
I do like wintry weather. However, our electric bill is a rather unhappy thing. We are in a drafty rental, so winter heating bills are rather brutal.
