But here in Nova Scotia?? On our first winter back here, I used my snow blower 3 times all winter.
That was one reason wanting to retire back here, not much winter...Oh, that and my wife is from here :-)
Well, this year we got clobbered with snow non stop since the end of January, but finally, Spring is starting to be felt
January 28th, we had no snow until then, has not stopped since
19 Mar
Rear entrance to my shop
On the 26th of Mar I decided I should alleviated the snow load
Yesterday, April 13th
Finally there is grass
When I went out to the woodshop on base yesterday, I was amazed how much the snow banks had shrunked. That and the fact that the car indicated a temperature of 19C outside!! Yes, I had the AC running in the car and people were walking in T-shirt. Looks kind of strange with all the snow on the ground still.
The temperature recorded outside my front porch at 1736hr
Unbelievable! But I'll take it! :-)
I think its now safe to say, Spring has finally arrived, and none too soon. The forecast for the rest of the week is between 7 and 10C, but it was only forecasted to go to 14 yesterday :-)
Bob, who should be able to access his backyard shed soon and BBQ, youpee!
I can't believe all the snow that you have still. For the first time this month, my furnace hasn't kicked in at all for two days straight. I'm slightly believing it's spring down here.
ReplyDeleteI know, really not the norm around here for sure, but maybe it will becomes the new normal? Arggggg run for it, watch up for puddles and pot holes!
ReplyDeleteMeanwhile my furnace hasn't stop yet :-(
