British winter?

His favorite joke was, "Do you know the difference between a Vermont sugar-maker and a New Hampshire sugar maker?"

Answer, "No."

"Well, when a New Hampshire sugar-maker finds a squirrel in the bucket drowned, he tosses it away. But when a Vermont sugar maker finds one, he squeezes it out first!"

That's funny!

well here on the east coast its a lovely sunny day, did have some frost overnight but the sun soon got rid of that.

did have a small smattering of snow a month or so ago, just enough to make this

I think that's what I'm seeing in the mirror these days!

One last gasp for Winter 2014-15 this morning, -21C, but the end is in sight!!!! Spring arrives in a few days with temps predicted to get consistently well above freezing next week. For the first time in months water can be liquid ( explanation for extra-terrestrials).

That should melt us out pretty good. It will be nice to see the ground again....  


And yes, sugar season here is starting

So far we have been lucky here in Calgary not much snow at all this year I hope it lasts!

Three and a half weeks to Midsummers day - then the nights start closing in again.

too right - we're still (just!) within the scope of "ne'er cast clout till May is out" ....

I think we're seeing a trend start to form.

Only occasionally has the air temperature here in my part of the world been above 12C. And the forecast for the next week isn't good.

29C here today. Rain predicted for the next few days @ 20C. So things are good!
