we are actually getting a second week of mostly spring like weather - above freezing[melting] weather , we had one day in the last couple weeks that we dipped to -5f but mostly lows in the teens-twenties , now they are starting to speak of flooding because we have gotten almost twice average annual snowfall and it came early/stayed so frost is shallow , im watching the river in the back yard , not seeing it leave its banks yet , but its running high i think those down the mississippi might want to be concerned tho ,

Not us yet. We had one day last week that went to 34 F.
Most of it's been 26-28 F during the day, and still getting close to 10F at night.
We are supposed to start breaking freezing later this week.

Hopefully I'll be able to get out for a gravel pit shoot in mid-April.

No...no can’t say that yet here on the roller coaster weather pattern last few weeks,maybe by Friday we’ll be up temp somewhat but more snow inbound for a couple of day’s called for yet,guess we’ll see what happens.

trust me - just because the calendar said its spring that does not mean we will get it till maybe may - probably late may , we have gotten snow storms in mid may and actually over memorial weekend one year a couple decades back , i would love to think the false spring would continue but - we were scheduled to get moe snow mid/late this week , now it looks like its coming as rain to start tomorrow into wed with possible snow - we are on the line between the two this trip down mother natures pathway ,

ive got easily 3 feet of snow in my yard right now , after a couple weeks of melting temps , i have a sheet of ice in my drive where that melting keeps accumulating and refreezing , the four feet of snow thats piled up on each side wont let the water drain down the natural drainage way , the deer have nearly defoliated my yews and cedar trees - least as far as they can reach , i am not sure how the pines out in the yard are fairing i cant get to them right now , the deer are right up against the house in front of the sliding glass doors , not sure some of it will come back - we shall see , ill post a photo when i can get ut there or onto the upper deck - it also has a couple feet of snow on it

snow started this morning and has just continued to fall lightly all day
