Cool in May > cool in March. I’ll prob be ok with these temps. I just hope we don’t get stuck with a meandering cutoff low, unless it’s the kind that brings humid weather and afternoon tstorms.

This weather is big time.

Twolves have a squad

Clt went from .31 to .4. LETS REEL IT IN

Don’t get too worried …you’ll be dead long before anything like that happens.

ECM has snow showers in Scranton next Friday and likely a frost threat next weekend

The Catawbas are ahead of schedule. These are at 4700' in Wolf. Last year these same plants didn't bloom until early June. We've had some fantastic weather this week. Sent from my Pixel 10 Pro using Tapatalk

They can put it back after the home is completed though? Instead our builder used to sell it off to their landscaping contractor, who then turned around and bilked the HOA at double the market price for landscaping the common areas (of which the builder at the time sat on the HOA board). Ah, the good old days of Calvert… lmao

We got reports of snow mixing with rain in Ligonier, IN, this morning.

in other words back to normal where every month is +2

Every spec requires stripping out the topsoil. It's not acceptable for graded areas. If it was left in, the Geotech would reject it. P.G. Co no longer allows topsoil, seed and mulch. Sod is required. I'm not sure about other jurisdictions. FYI...

perfect weather 61 no wind

I have a few mayapples! I have an area under some trees that I’m mostly leaving alone and intermittently planting some shade and dry soil tolerant natives. After 3-4 years, my Christmas ferns have started to spread. Dwarf crested iris has really spread and some asters have also spread into the shade a bit. There’s a lot of tree saplings and one sweetgum that volunteered is now like 6-7 feet tall. All that to say it can happen quicker than you might think if you don’t mow. I pull out any invasives that try to grow and any poison ivy (native but not welcome in my yard!).

I do think uber strong ninos tend to me more negative for us than for you. Midwest is pretty resistant to terrible snow years. Not the case on the coast, even interior NE.

Seemingly endless mild and dry.

My kid's T-Ball Opening Day is tomorrow at 9:30 AM. Current forecast in Curwensville is 38°F at 9:30 AM. I played baseball in snow. I was not four-years-old. This pattern needs to change.

Please post May ‘26 obs from your area as well as current wx events/obs for other areas. Hope all or at least most areas of the SE get good rains this month to help with the ongoing drought. The two big SE GA fires are now ~40% contained thanks to help from recent rains down there. My area has had some showers this morning, which includes some isolated small heavier ones. The main show (widespread 1”+) for here as well as for the fire areas is tonight through tomorrow. Please pin @buckeyefan1TIA

Amazing how some have IMBY vision only.

Recent rainfall and snowfall for you guys in Colorado. NWS snowfall analysis says it snowed above 6000-7000ft. The Rocky Mountain national park views have some snow visible above 11000ft today. Frisco/Breckenridge had some snow in town.

I've been very pleasantly surprised that some mayapple seeds I planted randomly under some trees in the back of my yard actually grew. Trying to turn my 1/4 acre (the back of it) into the woods, might take 30 years though
