March Madness

You know I wonder if there's like a "green up line" 

I think there's something like that with trees.  I could swear I've seen it, the leaf out line or something.   But not sure that's the same. 

That pithier verdancy of spring where the fields are delicious with it like a 5-star eatery's salad ..  I mean there comes a time every spring whence that is noticeable and it's not the same as a couple of fluke early warm days driving a greener patch here and there.  Talkin' full commitment, and it does tend to flash over the landscape across an instra-weekly time scale - days in other words.  Not sure when the first (average) time that is - I suspect that season's climate bias plays a role. 

It's nostalgic.  I've seen pre leaf out but budding trees, with perhaps Norway maples in flower - those give off one of the best spring aromas there is outside of Lilacs. That green complexion underneath paints the fields, festooned with yellow dots from dandy lion. This setting comes on prior to the trees.  Spring fever afternoon if it's 72.  Four days later there's leafs cracking out

Seems in April there was one in Connecticut, my lawn was brown and dormant, we'd go 45 minutes south into Connecticut for golf, and the grass was nice and green a goods two weeks before mine.

You can even see it doing it over the top of Kevin's house in CT...  

It'll probably dry out some but just sayn'   a-nnoying

Absolute boning up here again. Have had maybe a few minutes of sun.

Scoot’s favorite just released. Looks similar to the shading of the 365 day departures. 

I’m drier than SNH. Makes total sense.

I thought it was supposed to rain today?  Models had light QPF midday and yet it’s sunny and 50s up here.

Amazing win for several hours here.
