I can feel Spring!!

Southern, CT(Zone 6a)

I was surprised to wake up to an inch or two of snow. Went in to NY, they didn't get rain or snow. Took my daughter to visit the Tisch Ceter at NYU. Anybody have any feedback?

Pepperell, MA(Zone 6a)

snow again on sunday dave

Southeast, MA(Zone 6b)

Hoping to stay on the rain side of the line for this storm that is coming Sunday. Today is warmer than yesterday already and hope to see a little more melting begin again.

They keep upping the inches 10-14 now.

Springfield, MA(Zone 6a)

Supposed to go to 41 degrees today, and snow tomorrow changing to rain - up to 42 degrees tomorrow.

North Augusta, ON

-9 degrees here, weather says it's gonna snow from tonight until Monday.

threegardeners, where is North Augusta relative to Ottawa, Thunderbay, and Toronto?

North Augusta, ON

Just a hair SW of Ottawa, 5 hours NE-ish of Toronto. We don't get the lake effect warmth that Toronto gets and Ottawa is usually warmer than us on account of the Rivers.

Panama, NY(Zone 5a)

Spring? I've heard of it - - -

we appear to be between clippers here, might get up to 30 today, but then we're in for a plummet. We did have a melt down a week (2 weeks?) ago and you can now see that there's a garden bench out in the side yard, but no foliage. I do know that the H. niger has blooms under the snow because the dog dug some up - helpful fellow that he is.

OMGosh! Do you know Ottawa is supposed to be the 2nd coldest national capital in the world? Only the capital of Mongolia is suppsoed to have worse winters! I mean, even Moscow is warmer (and think of how many armies have been defeated by Russian winters!).

So you must be a particularly hardy bunch in North Augusta, if you refer to the "warming" effects of the rivers in Ottawa ^_^

North Augusta, ON

All of a sudden I feel colder...

I feel better you got it!

Springfield, MA(Zone 6a)

Well, you should feel proud! How many can endure what you put up with each winter? Think of all those Canadian "snow geese" who flee to Florida . . . but you? No! You are made of sturdier stuff! Mere winter can't defeat you!

Kryptonite?

High alcohol blood level will work.

Pepperell, MA(Zone 6a)

many of the canadians i've known use sherrie' s suggestion although that could be a british colony deal as the aussie's, kiwies, and s. african's are alike in that regard. also funnny as hell :)

Southern, CT(Zone 6a)

We were a British colony.

Milton, MA(Zone 6a)

And we're VERY funny.

Re the whether, I don't mind a little snow now and then, but at this time of year the highways are awful from all the salt. The white lines are gray, the asphalt is gray, the sky is gray, the yellow lines are gray, and all the grimy cars are gray too.

North Augusta, ON

I was smart, I bought a gray car...

Pepperell, MA(Zone 6a)

correction british colonies that speak with an accent - aye mate

Milton, MA(Zone 6a)

LOL Lee Anne!!! I'll bet she has an accent!!! ROFL!!

North Augusta, ON

Canadians don't have accents! Well, except for Newfoundlanders, and those in Quebec...but not the rest of us...nope...

Southern, CT(Zone 6a)

We often ignore that we're the ones with the accent.

North Augusta, ON

Although, was in Florida when I was a teen, a waitress knew I was Canadian after about 4 words...

Pepperell, MA(Zone 6a)

Aye - what's that 3g - being from boston i do not have an accent

South Hamilton, MA

Don't believe it.

Southeast, MA(Zone 6b)

Not as long as we stay in Massachusetts Bill. :)

North Augusta, ON

Hmmm...I wonder if our "eh" evolved from "aye"...

Southeast, MA(Zone 6b)

ay-yup, it's a possibility. :)

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

No axents here.

South Hamilton, MA

Southern, CT(Zone 6a)

Where is American English spoken correctly? Minnesotta? Missouri? CT is pretty close.

Denville, NJ(Zone 6b)

Panama, NY(Zone 5a)

Western New York - I have that on authority from a professor of accents

Pittsford, NY(Zone 6a)

You guys are too funny

South China, ME(Zone 5a)

Victor, I beg to differ, when in Maine... you stood out my friend. lol

Southeast, MA(Zone 6b)

I disagree that we drop our Rs. We just don't hit you over the head with a hard R. Oh and we certainly don't add them where they don't belong. :)

Hey pixie glad to hear from you, especially if it is to zing good old Victor. You must be feeling better ay? LOL

Southeastern, NH(Zone 5b)

Everyone tells me I sound like I'm from southy! I don't know why I grew up in the lowell area so I think it is a lowell accent! lol

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Sorry, but the rest of the world (outside NYC) talks funny.
