Like everyone else, I'm so tired of winter. Today gave me hope for springtime. Has your weather improved?

bigdogmom 03-14-2011 04:13 PM

We are having some sunshine, and springing forward with daylight saving time has really helped. We've had enough rain and snow!

merry 03-14-2011 04:18 PM

Rain, clouds, rain - great quilting weather!

My crocuses are in bloom, the sun has been shining and it is a little warmer, but still have not seen a robin.

Stitchnripper 03-14-2011 04:56 PM

It has been unseasonably warm here for weeks. Which puts everyone in the planting mood. And then there is always that one last freeze which kills everything and have to start over. We are trying to wait.

redturtle 03-14-2011 04:56 PM

was beautiful yesterday...
today barely hit 50 and grey...threatening rain all day...yuck

jojosnana 03-14-2011 04:58 PM

I am so jealous. We hear that we may have 3 days this week that may hit 60. We would be so grateful. That would really get rid of some of these huge snow piles. Whoopee!

mrs theo 03-14-2011 04:58 PM

I'm soooo green with envy :mrgreen: It was 36 in my neighborhood today...and windy :hunf:

cjomomma 03-14-2011 05:00 PM

Our weather keeps bouncing back and forth between warm and cold. It's making ppl sick.

978gray 03-14-2011 05:00 PM

Jealous! The high temp here was 43 and a snow squall came through! March is probably the worse month in New England, cold, dreary, dirty old snow. Our good weather will come in May. And I can't wait!

Scraps 03-14-2011 05:25 PM

78 here today - 18 holes of golf - Cumquat trees full of fruit - Azaleas in bloom by the thousands - maybe prettier than the Masters!!

littlehud 03-14-2011 05:52 PM

It was beautiful today. Sunshine and nice temps.

justwannaquilt 03-14-2011 05:57 PM

LOL I had 64 degrees yesterday and got woke up to my daughters school superintendent calling to say school was called off because of inclement weather and hazardous roads! Looked outside and we had snow on the ground! It snowed all day now its raining! Oh well I got two quilt tops done today since I didn't have to drag everyone out of the house twice and my daughter was able to keep her brothers occupied!

CarrieAnne 03-14-2011 05:57 PM

Lucky you!

MaryStoaks 03-14-2011 06:40 PM

My covered back patio thremometer said 90 today. It was a nice day in the desert. 90 is nice when there is no humidity.

Margie 03-14-2011 06:49 PM

ENVY

Sweeterthanwine 03-14-2011 06:56 PM

We have been having nice day, then nasty day, hoping it will get better soon. I to am tired of winter.

Quilting Angel 03-14-2011 09:39 PM

Yes, we have been in the 70's here for the past couple of days. I opened up the blinds and windows in my sewing room, and with a light breeze blowing it felt like I was sewing on my front porch.....was WONDERFUL!!!!

ginnie6 03-14-2011 10:13 PM

beautiful here today. the kids and I picked the last of my cabbage that survived the winter and planted a few bulbs. I have lettuce, turnips, and collards that are coming up. Now if it just doesn't get too hot too soon!

Rntraveler 03-14-2011 11:22 PM

Ha, read that stuff on FL and still don't miss it.... got so tired of cooking turkey in air conditioning and sweating like a hog in March pulling weeds..(I grew up in WPB back in the 40's)

Here in North Alabama the weather has been much better this week... in the low 70's today, a cool snap coming through and the weekend it will be in the 70's... daffodils, tulips, cherry trees, pear trees, forsythia's all blooming... sparrow's, blue birds nesting.. spring is on the way.

Patchworkmarion 03-15-2011 01:28 AM

It's getting cooler here.Yeh!

gaby4v 03-15-2011 01:41 AM

Not sure what the high was today, but tomorrow we will make it only to 35F with snow in the forecast. :thumbdown:

thenonnielady 03-15-2011 02:00 AM

The Bradford pears, the tulip magnolia, star magnolia, weeping cherry, daffodils and a couple of things I don't know are blooming.....I think, am hoping, it maybe, could be spring in Knoxville.

MerryQuilter 03-15-2011 02:10 AM

A tiny bit, yesterday when walked still needed gloves, but today may near 50 yeah!

teacherbailey 03-15-2011 02:22 AM

I'm in Atlanta as well and we woke up this morning to 45 degrees and pretty heavy rain.....welcome to spring!

Yooper32 03-15-2011 02:22 AM

Just plain NO.

quilter on the eastern edge 03-15-2011 03:03 AM

We had 15cms of snow and 75 km/hr winds. :x

Everywhere I went, people were discussing the weather and the conversations always ended with someone saying, "It could be worse ~ at least we don't live in Japan."

The disaster there certainly puts a few snowflakes in perspective!

pieces 03-15-2011 04:04 AM

Glad you are having great weather. :D
Here in Missouri we had 33 degrees and 4 inches of snow.

mar32428 03-15-2011 04:18 AM

Finally getting up in the eighties here in Orlando. Am trying to plant my vegetable garden but the temp keeps going down into the forties at night. Real strange weather for us in March. i can see my poor little tomato plants shivering.

Is everything OK with you???

OB 03-15-2011 04:51 AM

We are promised around 70 for friday !!!

jeannie t 03-15-2011 04:52 AM

Rain and more rain I want sunshine (so tired of winter) trees are starting to bloom and grass is starting to green up so just maybe winter is gone.

Scrap Happy 03-15-2011 05:18 AM

The days have been beautiful and in the mid 70's lately. It's been nice having the windows open. The mornings and evenings have been in the 50'-60's.

grannypat7925 03-15-2011 05:31 AM

Ours has improved a bit. Supposed to get to 66 one day this week. Rainy and 50 today.

sahm4605 03-15-2011 05:50 AM

I am totally jealous it snowed yesterday here.

mhansen6 03-15-2011 06:10 AM

We are expecting one winter storm after another this week. It is pouring down rain right now that is suppose to turn to snow late this afternoon. It would be perfect quilting weather if I didn't have to work.

vschieve 03-15-2011 06:18 AM

It was in the 40 degrees range driving into work this morning. At one area it was 41. Yesterday was cold until later in afternoon, which turned out delightful. We were having warmer weather until this front hit yesterday morning.

nawnee_00 03-15-2011 06:28 AM

I live in sunny Florida. Need I say more? Hope you have warmer days in the very near future.
