So, usually in spring, the weather predictions here go awol, and its almost a free for all. This year is earlier and more crazy then normal... still warmer then it should be for weeks, then we get a day, like monday morning at -22C. I wont spoil the surprise, but check wednesday or thurday...

Grafting season has begun as of thursday....

Ill have some boo pics as well.

I don't know, I thought that was pretty funny!

That -22C is not funny, however.

Paul, the first thing I did when i woke up was laugh like an idiot :D Lets just say someone introduced me to "reddit"

Take note what I said right off the bat :

"

_22C, has been changed to -18C. Not bad actually, only 4C lower then average. BEtter then our record low, which is a plant killing -35C today. Ill take it, concidering we are going to be around 10C on tuesday

We've got -7 in the forecast and a couple days below 0 (not sure this has happened for a few weeks now). But then finally some decent temps later in the week! Right now it is grey and very windy.

Ah Reddit, how many hours does that website waste?

Adam

That is a nice forecast! The only thing is its pretty unreliable at this time of year :( Ive been lucky, mine hasnt been to far off the mark myself, but once its pasted 2 or 3 days, it ususally changes. Thats good, that means there is conflict in the air patterns, and spring is pretty much here!.

Looks like saturday, the bamboos get uncovered!

Igor, and after what you folks have already been through, that's not encouraging :x

Jesse's right, seems after the weather graph has been up for a couple of days, they change it (thankfully).
This is more bearable than the previous one...almost gave me a heart attack:
Maybe all the senior weathermen have retired. :wink:

Adam, you folks are indeed getting less and less winter each year.
Ontario's three seasons!
Seeing your stuff go outside will get the rest of us "antsy", but post pics please.
