Only 29 more days until spring! 23 until daylight savings.

Mostly cloudy here today. 41. Wind has died down a bit.

Doesn't that sound great, less than a month to go.
Temp still 37 and still sunny and breezy.
Who's 50th B-Day balloons Victor?

Those were from my parents' anniversary last year.

I had to click on that, I thought they were blueberries.

Victor, I thought it was an airborne weather station!

Must be my creeping senility.

Hee hee!

snow melting today. Snow mon., not sure how much.

Actually, if you look closely, you will see a paper attached at the bottom. What I have done a few times is let these mylar balloons go with a postcard attached, asking whoever finds it to write down when and where they found it and drop it in the mail. Was always curious about how far it would travel. I say on the postcard that it's for my son's science class! never got one back yet.

We did a balloon release in 6th grade to raise $ to pay a boy's medical fees(what a story that is) One of the balloons made it to England.

Wow! You heard back? Cool!

next time I have balloons I am going to try that

One bad thing about balloons is they don't fly forever, and many marine animals mistake them for jellyfish, once ingested they don't break down and plug up the works, so to speak. High on the diet of sea turtles is jellyfish, save a turtle, pop the balloon. Just don't landfill it in the Atlantic. Ric

35 now going to 43

37 and sunny. Still windy.

Just back from the basketball games. Men won big. Women lost, despite a good comeback. Nice day!

46° today & snow melt , helped by DH chopping with a shovel on the driveway. Keep Mon. snow J-2 as they are predicting for tues. We will never see our snowdrops--bloom in Jan.--I don't think so.

32 now.. high of 42

About 30°. DH says that our snow predicted for Tues might be rain. I hope so.

42 and sunny.

39°, windchill 31°, Wind WNW 13mph, Sunny

41*F, Sunny, the wicked white stuff is going away! Ric

28 now.. going to 42... looks like snow shower / freezing mess might be coming tonight

It's 17* now with a hi predicted in the mid 30"s
Snow and rain mix for tonight.
Tomorrow nights hi in the hi 30"s so maybe we will see some snow melt.I would sure like to be able to walk in the yard.

28 here too. Sunny. Sounds like a slushy mix tonight.

Snow/Rain showers Tues, Wed. & Thurs. Friday- snow.

Good morning everyone. Trying to catch up around here after my get away from it all weekend. Needed that a lot. My sister took my mom overnight and DH and I headed for conn. Nice to not have to be worried about anything for a couple days. Best part was my souvenir. A cute garden gnome with sun powered lantern. Can't wait to get him in the new garden extension. His name is Charlie.
Weather was lovely and again today looks to be sunny and mild. Present temp is 30 degrees with light NW wind. Rest of the week not so much with lots of rain/snow/sleet. Mostly rain here so it could be a lot worse and maybe the soil will stay defrosted early this spring. That would be a good thing too.

Glad you got a refresher, Pat!

Thanks Victor. I must admit I really needed it, winter is really tough. Once a year they let me out in public. Ha!

Pat I can't wait to meet Charlie and so glad you got some Rn'R!

it was 25 here this morning - we are on the 4-8 / 5-10" line for tomorrows snow - i can only hope

glad you had a good weekend pat!

From the warm, humid porch - begonia.

Nice, really needed that....it's snowing here. :(

Bummer. We'll have a mess tonight.

That is nice Victor. Must be happy out there.
Thanks Bill and Pixie. Here he is, his first pic in his new home, but I do not think he likes the cold from the look on his face. I brought him back inside where it is warm and he looks much happier. ^_^

nice Victor... the gnome does look happy!!!

It's 38° and the snow has turned to rain. It may help to melt the rest of the snow, but it makes the ground all muddy!

Completely overcast now.

40° with snow predicted for tomorrow, changing to rain. Hope it gets rid of the snow on the ground with finally one snowdrop peeking through the cover. Moisture is then supposed to go out to sea & make a left turn reappearing as snow. Isn't New England fun?

Those backwards storms can be some of the worst too. So far this one that is due to "return" on Friday doesn't look too bad here in se Ma., but it is still a long way off. At least three days of cold but mostly rain storm to look forward to first. Current temp....45 degrees under sunny skies! Feels like spring out there today.

Overcast here too. Looks like a nasty weather week.
41 the low was 25
