April Snow
« on: April 27, 2010, 10:03:44 PM »
Surprise!
It's been snowing all day... and I don't think the tulips like it much!
Yesterday the thermometer indicated 20?C... and today it's freezing... crazy weather.

This has got to be one of the craziest weather patterns ever!  I wonder what summer is going to bring??

crazy indeed!
My Tulips are terrified to come up..we had snow last week with Hummingbirds at a snow covered feeder.
It's insane.

Last night, when they announced freezing temperatures, I had to drain out the fountain I just got for the backyard in case the frost would damage it...

Somehow, I think it might be a wee bit too early for tomatoes :)

it is madness.  We're still getting frosts here, which although isn't unheard of this time of year, they are usually rare, but we've had them for about 2 weeks now. Lovely sunny warm days though (sorry Francois  ;))

This is an El Nino year so who knows what we have ahead of us.

All I hope is that we'll have a nice Summer...
The weatherman just said we'd get back to 20? on Friday... Mind boggling.
