    Default Let's Talk About the Weather

    We can use this area to discuss the weather where you are...

    I'll continue our discussion about Tulips...

    I finally bought some two days ago from Walmart that were not yet ready to bloom, so I could enjoy them at Easter. I left them in the shade on the front porch and now I think they will loose their blooms before Sunday.

    We are in a drought in New Mexico so wild fires are everywhere and my plants are not doing so well. It is warm but windy every day. Good kite flying weather!

    Got four new tires for my wife's Prius last night from Tires Plus. While there, the front and back doors of their building abruptly flew open violently and the wind was whipping up papers everywhere inside the building. Lasted about a minute or two, rained real hard, then stopped as suddenly as it came.

    On the way home, a major main intersection (nearby the Tires Plus) had two of the six hanging traffic lights ripped from their mountings/wires and were laying on the road. I watched the news later on - no mention of whether it was a tornado, microburst or what. Today is bright, calm and sunny, like nothing happened!

    A week ago I was standing on the river bank fishing in 80 degree weather. This week we have had three frosts. And rain. Never ending rain.... sigh....

    That's an understatement!
    At least most of the snow that we did get has melted and spring is here.

    Sun? Oh yeah, I remember that! I hope to see it again someday. It rains most days. Yesterday had a little snow mixed in just for a little change of pace. It's supposed to hit 60 this weekend.

    Hey Smoken D:

    I just planted some Salvia's and got a chuckle. It says "Deer Resistant" on the tag, maybe you should try them!

    Going to water my new "installations" as all we have here too is high wind and no chance of rain.

    The Weather man said we might get treated to another dose of ThunderSnow after midnight tonight,
    if you've never seen or heard it before, --- with all the different colors of lightning and echos, It kind of sounds
    and looks like something straight out of the "War of the Worlds" movies.
