jeffcrom Posted February 12, 2010 Report Posted February 12, 2010 A rarity in Atlanta - nice powdery snow. When we have snow, it's usually with a nasty mix of sleet and freezing rain. Quote
Jazzmoose Posted February 14, 2010 Report Posted February 14, 2010 It's halfway through February and the ground is still snow-free! This is very odd (at least judging by the two previous winters I've seen here), but I'm not complaining. Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted February 14, 2010 Report Posted February 14, 2010 Warmer than we've been used to since December. Signs of things stirring in the garden too! Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted March 21, 2010 Report Posted March 21, 2010 (edited) Spring is definitely here in the UK. -7 two weeks ago, +15 at times last week. Crocuses out, bunnies and pheasants everywhere. I even saw a clump of daffodils on the way home on Friday. The best thing is despite the great ice massacre that killed off five frogs, it's been all action in the pond this week. Yesterday it poured with rain after several weeks of dry skies. Here are two frogs taking a rest from their endeavours (unless there are other under the water!!!!!) and enjoying the rain. Edited March 21, 2010 by Bev Stapleton Quote
JohnS Posted March 21, 2010 Report Posted March 21, 2010 Nice and spring-like hear too. Love the frogs. The only frog I've seen so far was a victim of a hit and run. Quote
kinuta Posted March 22, 2010 Report Posted March 22, 2010 The Japanese call this kind of weather ' san kan shi on ' literally three (days) cold four warm. That about sums it up. Quote
kinuta Posted April 15, 2010 Report Posted April 15, 2010 Bloody awful. Non stop rain,leaden skies and cold like winter. Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted April 15, 2010 Report Posted April 15, 2010 Dull and overcast. But that could be the volcanic ash the Icelanders are sending us in lieu of the money they owe us! Quote
mjazzg Posted April 15, 2010 Report Posted April 15, 2010 Hey Bev, bright and sunny here in London. Does that mean the Icelanders don't owe money south of Watford? Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted April 15, 2010 Report Posted April 15, 2010 Hey Bev, bright and sunny here in London. Does that mean the Icelanders don't owe money south of Watford? Quite possibly! A colleague of mine is supposed to be flying out to New York tomorrow - flight's been cancelled due to the ash. Quote
mjazzg Posted April 15, 2010 Report Posted April 15, 2010 yes, and tonight's tempting gig at the Vortex has been cancelled because Ikue Mori, Jim Black and Briggan Krauss are stuck in Oslo! However presumably Sun Ra's Arkestra will still play across the road at Cafe Oto as the spaceways remain uneffected Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted April 15, 2010 Report Posted April 15, 2010 Very good! Perhaps Gordon, Nick and David will all be grounded and they'll have to cancel the 90 minute episode of 'Thunderbirds' scheduled tonight. Quote
sidewinder Posted April 15, 2010 Report Posted April 15, 2010 Dull and overcast. But that could be the volcanic ash the Icelanders are sending us in lieu of the money they owe us! Glorious evening out here tonight. And no annoying low flying aircraft ! Quote
Tim McG Posted April 16, 2010 Report Posted April 16, 2010 60s and 70s after a strong Spring storm. Awesome weather! Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted April 16, 2010 Report Posted April 16, 2010 Mid 70s in western Michigan today. Temp is supposed to drop 20 degrees tonight and stay in the 50s for a week. Quote
kinuta Posted April 16, 2010 Report Posted April 16, 2010 Freezing cold, sleety rain with snow in the night. When I opened the curtains this morning I couldn't believe my eyes- snow covered rooftops ! Quote
BillF Posted April 17, 2010 Report Posted April 17, 2010 Dull and overcast. But that could be the volcanic ash the Icelanders are sending us in lieu of the money they owe us! Glorious evening out here tonight. And no annoying low flying aircraft ! Yes, but no aircraft bringing discs from the U.S! Quote
sidewinder Posted April 17, 2010 Report Posted April 17, 2010 Yes, but no aircraft bringing discs from the U.S! My Mosaics squeezed in a day before this all hit. Otherwise I might have had several boxes of ash ! Quote
jostber Posted April 17, 2010 Report Posted April 17, 2010 Nice and sunny before the volcano cloud from Iceland gets here. Low temperature, about 11C. Will be colder again tomorrow. Quote
JohnS Posted April 17, 2010 Report Posted April 17, 2010 Lovely spring morning here on the English Channel coast. The breeze is still a little fresh but nothing like the last few days. No evidence of volcanic ash but apparently it's there. Quote
brownie Posted April 17, 2010 Report Posted April 17, 2010 Clouds of volcanic ash go away!!! It's beautiful in Paris today. Nothing but blue skies for the time being! Quote
sidewinder Posted April 17, 2010 Report Posted April 17, 2010 (edited) Clouds of volcanic ash go away!!! It's beautiful in Paris today. Nothing but blue skies for the time being! Yes - Some incredible skies. I plan on checking out a panoramic high SW UK vantage point this afternoon to savour the plane-less skies. Enjoy it while it lasts ! And tonight would be a good one to burn a Wicker Man funeral pyre.. Edited April 17, 2010 by sidewinder Quote
Brad Posted April 17, 2010 Report Posted April 17, 2010 Rained last night (more water in the basement, ugh) and foggy today. Quote
