Outside, my neighbor's tree has started shedding pollen all over my car.

Another neighbor's daffodils may bloom soon.

My shaded trees' buds still haven't burst, though.

Pushing 90 here lol.  88 and 87 at the weather stations by me.

Might (or might NOT) be a bit stormy tomorrow.

From LWX's latest AFD:

(snip)

KEY MESSAGE 1...Severe Thunderstorms are possible Wednesday
afternoon and evening.

Tomorrow`s forecast is an extremely challenging one. At this point,
there`s a wide range of potential solutions on the table, with very
low confidence in which solution will ultimately verify. Forecast
details follow below...

High of 82

Not hating it, but just a little too soon.

Just chased inside by a gusty shower in last 10 minutes. Been outside all day working on the yard and getting garden area prepped for the upcoming season. High was 79.5 about 1/2 hour ago, down to 69.6/56.4 with the rain falling now.

A month ago there was an icy glacier over much of the region and now it’s straight to summer with the earliest 85 on record.

50s this weekend seems chilly lol, but it'll still be nicer than that prolonged stretch of sub-freezing (well, to me at least).

Yep, several opened up here today, crazy. This weekend is the Highland County Maple Festival, hoping those 40's and 50's in the forecast there happen. Something seriously wrong with going to a Maple Festival in shorts lol.

Two weeks ago Providence got 39" of snow, they hit 69 yesterday and today there's only 3" left on the ground. The quick flip in the east outside interior NNE isn't uncommon.

The rubber band had to snap back. I’ll take an early mid 80’s in March if it’s seasonable and below for met winter. That said, since some are grading winter here, I’d give it a C, but mainly because the last six or seven have been far less.
