Very cold here , biting winds , one and a half inches of ice in the water barrels brrrrrrrr . Afternoon sunshine and snow showers . Mixed sort of day . Not gardening to day 8) Bugs
73 here just before noon, should be in the mid 80's by mid afternoon. Just finished putting most of the new herbs into their pot homes or in the ground and got the cucumber seeds in thier pots.
It is 60F, cloudy and windy. No rain. I checked the seeds that I have planted. Nothing has come up. But, I only planted them on Monday and this is Wednesday. Could be I'm expecting too much? Dooley
Yet another bitterly cold day here today but at least the sun came out for a while. Just wish the pond would hurry up and de-frost as it's getting nearer and nearer frog mating time.
Another day into the 80's, again warmer than originally forecast. I am really afraid of what summer will bring.....I really do NOT like summer. If I start whinning too much about the heat just thump me upside the back of the head and "unstick my needle" Anyone old enough (besides me obviously) to know what that phrase refers too?
The met office here says last night was the coldest in 10 years air temps were minus 8 c ., ground temps were minus 16 c . A fox tried and succeded to take over Spoticus Minimus* kennel . I had to get up at two in the morning ,brrrr to hunt it out ( he is a brave dog this morning chasing magpies ) Toni said " unstick my needle " no idea , give us a clue and give my head peace Bugs
Flippin' 'eck!!!! It got very dark here a few minutes ago (before that we had bright sunshine) and this is what's happened over the last 5 minutes. No need for me to give a weather report as you can see what it's like for yourselves. Looks as though it's going to be on for the rest of the day.
Wow Eileen, that was sudden! It was bitterly cold last night in Galway as well but no signs of snow here at all. Nice blue skies as a matter of fact. I'm with Bugs on the explanation of the "unstick my needle" phrase. Pretty please
57 degrees here, going into the 60's. About 5 a.m. this morning a terribly loud thunder and lightning storm rolled over us and I could just see all my newly planted seeds floating out of their pots. But once again, we got nothing.....zip, zilch, zero, nada, nary a drop....seeds are safe but we sure could have used that rain. Eileen, I will be more than happy to trade with you!!!!! That is beautiful!!!! Bugs, hint........45, 33 1/3, 78
Thanks Toni , got the message We never used that term here , lets see if Frank gets it . The snow is pouring down here now but not sticking . Weatherman says more of the same tomorrow . 8) Bugs
You're 'stuck in the groove' with your dry weather Toni and I'd be more than happy to swap with you - for a while at least!!! Here's hoping you get some rain soon.
No rain! What came down was not measurable? It did leave muddy spots all over my truck. Had to was the windshield before we could go out in it. Sunny and warm today but a little breezy. More of it tomorrow. California is getting another storm but it probably won't reach us. When it rises to go over to mountains it gets lost somewhere. Dooley
