    We have winter weather back again.

    The snow has been falling for around half and hour. The weathermen say to expect a foot or more by morning. :eek: I hope my frog spawn survives.

    That is gorgeous...this coming from someone who is wondering whether or not to turn on the AC in about an hour so the house will cool down while I am cooking supper.

    I really will trade weather with you for a couple of days tho, right now we have 80F/27C and it's supposed to reach 83 before evening.

    Oh Eilieen. I have heard rotten weather reports all day on the radio. I really feel for you all in the North, I know Wales has been hit also. Rumour has it we may get some tomorrow, but I am keeping my fingers and toes crossed it won't come.

    Looks like our weather went your way yesterday, Eileen. Sorry about that. :( I asked it to go to Siberia since I know you all want proper spring now. Hopefully it's the lambing snow. Go fertilize! I'll try to steer the next snow fall north and west. We've got more snow predicted for later this week.

    Oh no, I think CT is dead between Texas and Scotland. We've been barely avoiding the snow they keep forecasting, don't send any more this way ;)

    That being said, I hope it warms up for you Eileen, and cools down for you Toni. Crazy weather we're having all over the world right now.

    Oh gosh Eileen, that's exactly what I keep expecting to happen here! We had a mild winter and this week is gorgeous with temperatures reaching 24°C by the weekend. But I KNOW winter isn't over yet.
    I hope it all melts quickly so you can get on with spring.

    Oh Noooooooooooooo.... We're just across the channel. I wonder if it's coming over this way. I sure do hate to see it return.

    Wishing you and your frog spawn strength. :)

    Scotland was on our news yesterday, and it didn't look good. I'm so sorry for the girl who died in the crash. :(
