I woke up this morning and heard something wonderful outside: the rain was coming down. It's a slow and steady Seattle-style rain, and we needed it. As of now, an hour later, it's still coming down, slowly but steadily. We were literally "zero for February" until this front moved in.
How's the weather where you are? Any signs of Spring (or Fall, for our down-under friends)? I bought some new corn, green bean and pepper seeds and have started planting for Spring with the kids at the preschool.

Rain is common here, we got 1.5 inches so far in the past 36 hours, the sun was out but the clouds are back now. Yes its pretty Spring time here, this is one of my yellow bell bushes.

Glad you're getting the rain and not me. 
The sun is shining and it's about 7°C here in St Catharines.

I think the Russians are now playing with our weather. I have no idea when the temps will finally reach the plus side and I am tired of it all.

@TheHorse yes, please and then we will ship him farther on so he can see what it's really like in Siberia where you can really freeze your butt off.

I love the sound of rain :-)
I won't hear it for real for another few months.
We got a lot of snow on Saturday, over 6 inches.
Do I understand right - you planted stuff - outside - for a garden?
Won't lie.... jealous right now.....

I love the sound of rain, too. In fact, I use rain as "white noise" for bedtime. Funny story, though: Saturday the real rain was coming down so hard it was drowning out the ambient sounds!

We've had rain for days but not enough to cause any flooding. Hopefully the sun will shine today or tomorrow

We've had over ten inches of rain this month. Wish we could send you some.
The grass is greening up quickly. There's still plenty of brown, but the green is starting to win out everywhere. Yay!!!

I'm glad you're getting rain. Spring is in the air here. Just 20 days until that happens. The sun is shining, the sky is blue, and the snow is melting. Today. Tomorrow we're in for more snow - maybe. It might go south of us again.

I'm late on this, but 40's today and tomorrow, then 50's and 60's for the next ten days!
