Trees started blooming here 2 weeks ago when the weather was in the 70s for the most part ...

We might get showers Thursday but that's a good thing cause we've had a very dry winter this year

I don't think anyone from California is allowed to call what they have winter, okay? There is no time of the year when California's weather can be described as such outside of the mountains...and they're mountains, ok? Altitude doesn't count.

If you can only imagine halfway, then you're not ready for winter up here yet. Small cars get totally buried all the time up here, sometimes it take a couple hours to shovel them out. I drive an SUV, so I only get about half covered...and it's 4WD, so I don't bother to shovel, I just hop the bump.

Mojave Desert here, first sign of spring is rattler strikes. But we only have two seasons, hotter than hell and when hell freezes over.

Absolutely nothing, got warm a couple days the past month, been cold otherwise. Snowed yesterday and the day before for a little bit.. Calling for more fucking snow today. I haven't even heard birds chirping..
Trying to remain hopeful as they are calling for some warmer weather coming up.. but ill believe it when I see it.

40N, Midwest, grass just has a touch of green in places. No robins, still little salt piles on the street. 36 today maybe close to 60 in a week but nites still hit 40 and below.

I still have close to 3ft of snow on my front lawn, but the small birds are back and that is how I always know spring is here.

Cant wait to put the skidoo away and haul out the lawn tractor. :)
