    It was a nice sunny warm day! No clouds or rain in sight. Now, the skies are dark, it's pouring rain and I think I hear thunder. When it started it was those little snowballs but now it's just rain. Little snowballs. We had to hurry out and put some things away and got all wet. Yuck! Not a nice sunny day now.It's cold and wet. It's not even 50. I'm mad. It's probably spring weather but not the kind I'm used to. I hope it doesn't frost tonight and knock those little apricots off the tree. dooley

    Ouch! Sounds noisy and cold. Stay in and stay warm, won't you.

    Poor dooley! I'm watching my thermometer urging it to go high enough to make it worth going out with my sprayer to deal out death and destruction to the weedlings - we started out sunny but now it's a light overcast... phooey... I hope your weather warms/dries up a bit for you soon.

    Sounds a bit like our Scottish weather where you are at the moment Dooley. If you stand outside here for a while you get all four seasons in one day!! :D :D

    Dear me...what weather!
    I'm afraid I'm in the same boat with Eileen, over here.
    I really do need a patch of dry and warmish weather now, cos my garden chores are starting to pile up.
    Pretty soon I shall be overwhelmed with work that has to be done all at once.--that oughtta be fun.
    Good luck with your weather there, Dooley---and guard those apricots.

    Oh dear - I hope that it does not come to harm your garden and that it warms up soon. :stew1:
