Where's our planet meteorologist Archie F. Swain??

I can't promise but I will do my best! Been raining all March here. I feel like I am in Seattle!

Sunny and 80 the past two days in Northern Iowa!

I worked on my yard both days. Yard thatched, dead grass and winter crap all picked up. Fertilizer down. (Some good rains expected this week).

Several other misc outdoor things done and I got some serious sun :thumb:

60's here just got done grilling.

i've had the bike out 3 times.
run over 2 snakes.
got two mowers tuned up and ready to go and another in the shop.
hearing turkeys in the mornings.
wife's out running 18 miles, training for a marathon next month.
using ice to keep beer cold.
ernie's over working on his garden.
got a ****ing beaver in my pond...ok, that doesn't have anything to do w/spring, but wtf???
winter's over people.

sec

Warmed up here, but is going to cool down to more seasonal averages in the 60s within the next week. On March 16 we set a record for the earliest 80 degree temperature since they have been measuring.

We've robins in South Dakota - they've been here for two weeks - you must not be looking hard enough.

Cottonwoods are about to bloom and the maples are flowering. Cool season plants are sending up vegetative growth. I've my eyes open for cold weather settling back in.

It's 55 and the wind is blowing around 30 mph here in San Diego. I am freezing my ass off because the windows in my house suck and I am not going to turn on the heat. :mad:

Yes, I know I am a big pussy.

They always appear here in large groups when they come back. Haven't seen a 1 yet

I am leaving for Cancun in the morning. LMAO

I hear what you're saying, i guess for me it really all depends on what i'm doing.

At work, i HATE the sweltering heat as much as anyone, walking around all day on a huge piece of black, sun sucking asphalt shimmering like a mirage, in khakis & a polo or button down.

But when i'm off i LOVE it... at some pond, river or lake fishing, fishing some shady spots & cover, wearing shorts & not much else, taking along plenty of beverages, ice & water, going for a dip where possible or even going to the local pool for a bit... yep, hot & sunny is usually a great off day for me.

Heh. Chicago in winter warmer than San Diego. I like it. :evil:

we're an hr north of the airport and the robins showed up here on the 1st, along with mosquitoes

already had to mow the front

The light wind around here lately has been real nice. Just a great few days.
