Just browsing through some of our local climatology stats and noticed that the late 60's and especially early 70's had some darn cold springs. Halifax airport had 27cms(11") of snow fall on May 10,1972. The height of the storm occurred in the afternoon between 11am and 5pm and the temp did not get above -1c. Yikes

So we're judging by a weather board filled with cold, winter weather fanatics who wish it would year round?

 

LOL..of course it's skewed

 

If I recall, at some point in the past 4 billion times that this top has come up that links to public forums that have nothing to do with weather showing that people prefer low humidity over high "dews".

 

In fact, check out this non-weather board poll, but please, don't let facts get in your way:

The best part is that this poll isn't even region specific so it can't be said that only people from New England prefer low humidity.

Did some gardening today.

 

Only another foot left to melt from the backyard.   :axe:

lol...I've been tied up going into my office the past couple of days but I think we are down to a few well protected patches.  I'm wondering how long the municipal piles are going to last but it's amazing that we still have anything hanging around.  If it wasn't for December and January, we would have had a really nice long period with snow on the ground.

Nothing beats these sunny days though. Really nice to have during the worst month of the year. Like getting a cold tuck in January while Tolland is torching.

Yeah. These sunny mid-April days at least somewhat bridge the gap into the more consistent warmth of May. This time of year can be so dismal in a wet pattern. Moreso back to reality next week.

I saw one tiny patch in some of the woods at the edge of my property this morning... by now I am sure it is gone.

I haven't gone deep into my woods but I will call today, Napril 16, the last day with a T for me for cover

Other spots around me have some piles, some yards still have close to edge to edge in the shade, but mine is done

Jealous of the N/C Rockies in Colroado right now...storm is just getting underway. They could see 4 feet of snow in the next 2+ days.

 

Gotta love how it's like 33F in DEN but then once you get to like 12,000 feet due west, the temp is 12F, lol:
