71 degrees and sunny here. Granted I spent 30 minutes outside at lunch time, and it's likely to be dusk before I go home, but this is quite nice.
 
Yeah, the two feet of snow we got a couple of weeks ago is down to about 10 inches in many places, and there's even grass showing in other spots.

Oh good, you finally got it. We sent it your way last weekend.

But don't fall for it it, it's a trap. More winter on the way.
 
I drove with the top down on the way TO work, and on the way home!

On the way home, two songs that played on my iPOD were "Mr Blue Sky" and "Here Comes the Sun" - randomly!
 
I did a quick tulip check this morning, expecting no joy, but instead saw:

Dangit Lynn, don't you know the rules? When someone says "Spring is here!" we get a massive snowstorm and cold front within a couple of days. Then it gets warm, and someone else says "Spring is here!" and we get another storm. Lather, rinse, repeat.

It's only when you GIVE UP HOPE of spring EVER coming again, that spring actually sticks around.

It's February. Abandon hope, all ye who enter here!

;)
 
Even the Groundhog is on my side this year, Kent!
 
Hate to pop your Spring is sprung but it's snowing heavy here in SoCal. Add liberal doses of wind and sleet and we got a party! Happy Srping ya'll.
 
No spring here. -23°C and a wind chill of -38°C. Sunny, but I wish this cold air mass would break up and let some Pacific warmth in.

At least there are no mosquitos.

Yesterday, mowed the lawn, and started the garden. Today is a little frosty early but expecting upper 40s this after noon. call 1 360-675-8431 for weather at OKH.

Winter Storm warnings. Winter storm watch. Raining. Ice is coming.
 
My wife said they are expecting over a foot of snow in MN in the next two days.
But I am in MO for the week and it is 70 today :D
 
Two days ago it was 70 degrees here in Jersey.
This morning it was 14!
Snow coming tomorrow!
Arrgghhh!!!
 
Well, you have until next Friday to dig out again and come and tell me that in person, Kent. Over the internet... I can only take responsibility for my own part of this state. :cornut:
 
If this is spring, I don't want to see winter again. I cleared my driveway twice today, blowing out at least 6 inches the first time and more than that the second. It's still coming down but not as hard.
 
Well, I think I have at about as much snow today as we got for Snowmagedden 2011.

No big problems getting all the way to work so I could get effing stuck in the parking lot...

We had a long bout of thunder. The winds were HOWLING. I was afraid we'd have a long power outage.

No snow yet but this morning the ice was bad enough that the cops closed two major state roads at 5:30AM. There were plenty o' cars in the ditch.

#Snowmageddon and #Snowpocalypse were last year. You're talking about #SnOMG. ;)

We had a period (1 hour?) of several brownouts and a VERY short (1-2 seconds) blackout. It was enough to knock the Internet out, but everything else I run these days has batteries. :)
 
From 70F last week to low 20's this morning and five to six inches of snow last night. Yeah its really feeling like Spring now. :cryin:
 
I had 70s all weekend at the beach. Back home to a sleet storm and dusting of snow on the ground.

However, the sun is coming out and I think the week is supposed to get warmer. Not warm, but warmer.
