it's close, you want soil temps above 50. usually forsythia blooms are a good indicator of when it is time-but keep in mind shady areas need more time (and you really don't want cold nights)

you must be new here

yesterday afternoon turned out OK, was able to get a little yard work done that said, this weather sucks ass. Aside from a couple tiger lilies poking up, not much is happening spring-wise. The red maples have the usual red buds, but those take 2 months to open up.

congrats on your high of 51 yesterday.

rotting at 45 here. Still waiting for the 60+ that the pope-a-wheelie promised

DIT just got 2.5" of accretion in his dungarees.

I’m flying into MHT Saturday night. how screwed am I regarding zr?

Probably along the I-84 Bermuda Triangle near @Damage In Tolland where all the people end up getting in accidents.

FYP

I would like to remind you to please stay safe.

I ski locally in southern NH at Pats Peak. the last 3 years: -2024/2025: 12/13 (I missed opening day by a few days) to present (I think they will close after this week) -2023/2024: 12/1 (opening day) to 3/22 (closed a couple days later -2022/2023: unsure of opening day, but it was sometime in January, to 3/22 Very consistent opening and closing dates regardless of what the Pope spouts

jesus christ man, you are such an all-knowing blow hard. the ski season was actually pretty damn good. how many times did you get out this year?

65/57 here. Yard is about 90% clear of snow. @dendrite for the loss

it is really early to be seeing any green grass, except maybe SW CT. your soil is still pretty cold I would think

oh boy, I can't wait to see the DIT or 40/70 edits on this one.

March 2023 (27" here) begs to differ

he is busy doing donuts in the snowpack at @tunafish's yard

yup for sure. sunny spots in my yard are bare, but those are small areas. shady/wooded spots have more, obviously

As disappointing as this winter was, i have to go with a C+ (maybe closer to B-, but whatever) -late start, with another New Year grinch storm. pretty dam good middle, the stretch from 1/11 to 3/4 had no rainers, which is unusual. Poor ending, melt started on 3/4 -good pack retention, had snow on the ground from 1/11 through at least 3/10. Also had good depth, with around 18-20" at the peak (currently between 4-6") -good cold air, nothing crazy and no records or anything, but it was consistently cold from 1/1 to 3/4

pretty breezy here. Lost power an hour ago, it came back on as I was putting gas in the generator. now I gotta drain it again

same up in Pittsburg

up north in Pittsburg NH snowmobiling for the week. Went from -14 Monday morning to 38 and rain today. Went for a 50 mile ride this morning and got soaked. bailed and started drinking early, and now leaving tomorrow, a day early. Trails are absolutely taking a beating. elevations have over 4 feet of snow and will survive, but down low, forget about it and we’re onto spring.

had lunch there yesterday, no pics, sorry got up to Pittsburg yesterday afternoon but haven’t been out yet. the number of trucks/ trailers heading south was insane. Trails always suck in NH on the school vacation weeks, especially on the weekends, which is why I am here all week. and it’s fucking -14 this morning

I think you need to check your math

I think he was at the Brokeback Strap
