all the snow has already melted here, it does that all the time , esp. come february....I could never live further north than here, especially after this horrible winter

At least we're on the right side of January...

While everybody's been shivering in January, Fairbanks Alaska was above zero for several weeks.

OK, Barb, a bad thing for them is that they will be staying under the same temp conditions in July too.

Different situation here. How on earth am I going to test out all my new plants when there is no frost or snow. This is a terrible situation... not

Its very strange to see my abutilons still in leaf and flower. I even have an Alstroemeria still in leaf above ground. My hardy Fuschia is still in leaf. never seen anything like this here even during our run of warm winters in the 90's. LOTS of rain though glug glug.

Here's a personal confession I was born in the town of the weather forecasting groundhog. And with this forecast I think he's a jerk.

It should be open season on groundhogs...

There s a thing i don t understand, you guy's living in the northern USA, why you just dont go living in the South states ? If i was born in the NY state, sure ill go live in Florida

Finnished watching the Olimpic games opening ceremony. Proud for the Canadians!!! The Americans were cool too! I trust there wasn't too cold as at your house! Take care and tell your Doggy getting out to pee sometime. My Whiskey is not too shy...

Yup, whiskey is the answer to this cold.
Warm whiskey.

Well there's a price to pay for our mild weather. Another storm is due to hit the UK on Saturday with consistent 70-80 mph winds, the power of this storm will raise sea levels in places by 60ft and will cause untold damage to coastal areas in Wales and south west England aided and abetted by torrential rain. Large swathes of south west England and Somerset are under water and Farmers are now having to sell their cattle as there is nowhere for them to feed. There is fury amongst the people here through Government inaction.

the quality of life down south isn't as good as the north , home values, incomes, education levels etc....sub par any way you look at it.

Take care, Andy.

ugh....that's even worse than the mouse nest near my alternator.
During the oilchange, the mechanic said "in six months, you should renovate the mouse house."

sick man

Oh man, are we ever gonna kiss the ground when it finally thaws, huh?
