TOPIC: Three prongs are up and coming!

Latt

I was looking at the weather radar and looked like Ohio is getting some snow. Our forcast for friday is 70% chance of snow. I hope is goes south of us like the last storm did.

I hope that you did'nt have any seng up yet.

Classicfur,

I'm in the same boat as you. I'm so ready for Spring it's unreal. I took another stroll through the woods yesterday, and it's starting to come to life. Last week it was pretty much dead, but yesterday I saw grass coming up, clover coming up, mayapple popping up, and ferns getting green. Everything seemed to be getting busy except the one thing I want to see!

Sounds like your closer to spring than I am. There is nothing growing in our woods yet.

I do have some Tiger Lily's starting to poke out of the ground next to the house.

I think that over the next two weeks I will start seeing some green growing in the woods. But still 3-5 weeks yet before I will have seng starting to come up.

Winters seem to get longer as I get older.

Classicfur,

I was thinking the exact same thing when your said the older you get the longer the Winter lasts. This morning, I emailed my uncle that stays in Florida over the Winter and jokingly told him don't come back until Memorial Day. That way he's guarenteed warm weather. I'm beginning to think anything before that is a crap shoot.

None of my sang is up yet. We did get a half inch of snow today. Should melt by tomorrow as it is supposed to get into the high 40's tomorrow.

That's good that you did'nt get much snow.

They are forcasting 8-14\" of Wet Heavy snow on friday for us. But possibly turning to rain.

I hope this is just an April Fools joke. But I'm afraid it's not.

The good thing is that I don't have any seng up yet.

We usually don't get any snow after March. It's supposed to be in the 40's each day after the snow storm. So it will be melting.

Hang in there, spring is coming!

8-14\" of snow??!! I would lose my mind if we got that kind of accumulation on April 1. If you're ready to move, let everyone know. I'll be glad to chip in on some gas for you.

I have basically 3 months of winter, 3 months of spring, 3 months of summer, 3 months of fall.

I think up there in Main - Classicfur has 6 months of winter, 3 months of spring, 3 months of fall (and no summer)

If he can just get out of that 6 months of winter stage - he will be OK.

You are almost right. Actually we have one day of summer, and that one day is around July 4.

But while the rest of the states are having weather in the Hot Humid 80's and 90's, Up here we are having pleasant weather in the upper 70's. From May through Oct, it's beautiful in Maine.

You have to be one tough critter to survive winter in Maine.

You know that saying: \"Absence makes the heart grow fonder\". The long winters makes us appreciate the other six months, just that much more.

I used to live in Santa Barbara California, and it was completly different. It never got below 58 degrees and never got hotter than upper 70's. I lived in that kind of weather for 30 yrs. I had never seen it snow before. Now I see too much snow.

I could trade my winters for yours, but you can keep your summers. They are too hot for me.
