F U Mother Nature (spring version)

[sms001]

So you're more than six feet under now?

We get some melt off very rarely during the season, and a lot of it compacts under it's own weight, but .....yes.

bikes, snowmobiles, snowblowers, cars, lawn mowers, ladders, Xmas decorations and buried dog poop ???????

Deer carcasses. Always make me think of the whole woolly mammoth they pulled out of the tundra in Siberia. And I LOVE that little "POP" under your boot when an ornament that fell off the tree near the discard pile finally doesn't have snow protection. A sure sign of Spring.

Yesterday, Mom told me she stood outside her apartment with her neighbors and watched a tornado pass by a few miles to the south. Ick. Luckily, none of my family are injured - one cousin has a lot of damage to her house and her car's totaled (tree fell on it), but that's it. Tornado came really close to a family friend, but it passed over his house. The only damage? Some broken wind chimes and scratches on his truck caused by a neighbor's falling shingles.

I seem to be in a sweet spot in between the cold and snow up north and the storms and tornadoes down south....*crosses fingers*

We won't go there about dog poop. You can't even walk in my parents' backyard anymore, until Dad shovels all the dogshit out of the way.

Yeah, it was a long winter with a lot of snow.

but what about the bikes, snowmobiles, snowblowers, cars, lawn mowers, ladders, Xmas decorations and buried dog poop ???????

It's funny 'cause it's true.

And I was surprised when all that snow melted, no missing children or pets or anything were found.

An inch or so of wet snow forecasted for tonight.

Thankfully, Friday will be finally in the 60s. This has been a miserable effing spring. I'm holding Mother Nature to a decent summer.

Farmer's Almanac calls for decent weather on my week off next week.

...we've had over 70 inches of snow in this part of WI this winter...

It snowed this morning. Puke.

Actually Racket had it close, except around here it's farming, farming/construction, farming/football, and OMFG IT'S COLD!!

[Becks]

Nope there are ONLY 2 seasons in the upper Mid_West Winter and construction OR Football season and construction season.

Not even close.

Baseball season and snow.

Been wondering that myself..

Winter, summer, winter, fall, winter, fall, summer..... No spring yet.

[Greenday]

Wtf is Spring? Went straight from Winter to Summer here. 95 degrees today and it's not even May damnit!

[Mikkel]

And now I'm going to pull a Jester.

Here we have had lovely spring weather for over a week. Temperatures above 15 C in daytime, around 5 at night, sun and blue sky.
I'm just home from grocery shopping in t-shirt and jeans. I'll have to watch out not to get sunburnt.
The forecasts say that it will continue until Wednesday .

My mom is originally from another hour and a half up north of here (way up towards Superior) and she says that below average temperatures and steady snow still falling like this was the norm UP THERE when she was growing up. But around here and to the south of here, it was always at least in the 50s or 60s continually this time of year.

It was miserable and rainy and windy here too, today, but there was a lull in the morning and early afternoon. No thunderstorms like predicted....well, if there were, I slept through them. I've been sick since Wednesday morning and missed work Thursday night and haven't ventured off too far where there wasn't a bathroom nearby. I picked up some food after laundry at my parents' Friday morning and I met up with a coworker at the gym, but neither of us felt active enough to do much. I tried some ab workouts but I made my stomach even more upset by doing so.

Apparently around here, softball/baseball and other kids stuff is just not happening because of the weather. I'm not allowed to complain about rain, but I sure as hell am going to bitch about cold and snow.

Oh look....it's going to be nice and 60 degrees on Sunday.....when I have to go back to work!
