One good thing about a spring baby --you're not stuck in the house! At least until they are a lot more mobile on their own, of course. Winter is coming.

We had a nice and warm day here today, but cool tomorrow before a nice 24 and sunny day on Sunday. The weather is a bit all over the shop.

I have a sling, so I can go out with her in pretty much all weather, though I'd hesitate if it were really slippery outside.

Yesterday was stupidly cold again. Today it's windy instead.

We're back to damp.
ETA: We've gone beyond damp to wet. Indeed the northeast corner of the back garden has standing water.

0 degrees, snow and cold northern wind. Hard to bicycle.

We had a blizzard. Hopefully the last one of the season!

Sunny, but very cold gusts.

Less damp, but still overcast and cool. I'm malingering indoors because it is not inviting to play in the garden.

-1 C, windy and snowy. Hard snowflakes whipping me in the face.
Snow is welcomed in November, December, January and February. It is accepted in March, both winter and spring, spring one week and winter again the next week. But in April we are really tired of snow and cold. The first spring sign, tussilago (colstfoot) appeared weeks ago.

It was lovely warm and sunny, then we had snow and hail and 2 minutes later we had sun again. This cycle has been repeating itself the last couple of hours. Weird weather.

No snow or hail here, but also periods of sun interspersed with ominous clouds.

Yeah, that was yesterday here. But the ominous clouds took over. They are now firmly in control and ominissing all over everything. It is wet.

We've been having a beautiful day! Sunny, warm, 16 C ! Almost all the snow has melted. I'm sure the crocuses will be coming out very soon.

YAY! The sun actually reaches Farther Kye in the depths of Lower Canada!
Spring is here.

Cold and blustery today. Supposed to be a hard frost tonight - maybe 5 degrees below freezing. Forecast is for it to warm up considerably next week on the run-up to Easter.

Lovely autumn day here today, sunny and warm. Should be a nice week.

Tempting. A little bit of sun.
I'm going to suit up and see how things go in the garden.
ETA: Nope. I got cold feet. Literally. And fingers. I only accomplished a tiny bit of weeding, before I came back in seeking lunch and a nap.

A friend of mine at uni said her (quite aged) father used to do the gardening in his suit on Sundays after church.

Warm here today. I'm wearing a dress! Bit of summer weather after winter weather last week. Not sure where the autumn weather is.

By 'warm' do you mean over 30°C?

Post by whollygoats on Apr 16, 2019 15:21:44 GMT
I'm still waiting for 'warm' (I use an arbitrary 15 C start point for 'warm').

Sunny and nice though the baby needed a hat to stay warm because of the wind.

LOL WG your "warm" is my winter!
It was 27, so warm. Warm today too at 29. If it's over 30 I'd say it's very warm or even possibly hot.

Yep. I suspect that is because you are closer to the equator. Anyway, that's one reason I continue to live here. It's what a friend who moved here from east Texas calls our "outdoor air conditioning". The weather is pretty moderate, if a mite wet. Temperatures rarely fall below freezing for very long, and excessive heat is rare and also short-lived. "Moderate" is the usual phrase used to describe the climate.
'Warm' for me, is to be able to leave the door open so the fuzzwads can transit. There comes a point where 'hot' cuts in and the doors get closed again to keep the cool in. I just checked my dual measure thermometer and 27 C is about where I shut up the house to keep the cool in (~80F). I detest temperatures 30 C or over. I should have been born a Canuck.
I'm guessing that I have a fairly narrow window of comfort with regards outdoor temperatures. 22 C is my ideal, with about 5 degrees either size being 'my zone'.
Today is 'same shit, different day'....Cool, overcast and threatening to rain. Rumors are we might get a sunny day today, but I'm withholding judgment until I see results.
