Uhm what happened to Spring?

[BarenakedLady]

I think Spring has once again skipped over this area. It went from end of winter blahs to summer heat in the blink of an eye. My spinach is pissed. It's going to be in the 90's all weekend. I swear it was only a few weeks ago I wasn't sure if I could plant seeds for fear of a frost.

I'm a wilting fleur, I tell ya!

[BarenakedLady]

1. Shut up!

[LisaM]

27. It's in the FORTIES here (Seattle)

and rainy. I'm on the 39th floor, and the precipitation outside my window was just starting to take the form of snowflakes (didn't quite get there though). I came to work in a sweater and coat.

[yellowdogintexas]

2. it has been in the 90's for days here.

we had spring in February

[BarenakedLady]

4. I think Spring here was a couple days last week.

[Inchworm]

3. I will help

Just lay in that lounge chair over there, and I'll water you all day :D



Flirt- Flirt- Flirt- :loveya:

Enjoy the sunshine :)

:hi:

[BarenakedLady]

5. What a fun smilie!

That gives me the idea to hook up the sprinkler for the kids this weekend. Thanks! They will love it.

:hi:

[Inchworm]

21. Homemade ice cream too!

Hehe.

That can be work, but it's rewarding.

:hi:

[BarenakedLady]

30. I don't know how.

I think I have an ice-cream maker that I've used once in the past 12 years. LoL. No idea where it could be.

[DS1]

6. It's 55 and raining here.

Perfect!

[BarenakedLady]

7. Oh, it'll get there.

I'm sending it your way.

[DarkTirade]

8. It was pretty while it lasted

now I'm here in a house with no air conditioning and it's past 80 degrees outside. D'oh.

[BarenakedLady]

11. Poor you.

I tried to hold off on the A/C, but I caved.

Ahhhhh coolness. :D

[DarkTirade]

14. 'sokay, I'm about to get in my car... which does have AC.

:)

Oddly enough, I'm 'bout to head over to your side of town. :P

[BarenakedLady]

15. Oh really?

Give me a wave.

I should go shopping for foodstuff...eventually.

[DarkTirade]

16. Normally I'd just come home after dropping my grandpa off...

but the mall over there has AC. Home doesn't. :P

[BarenakedLady]

31. I soaked through my tank top

Just walking from the car to the grocery store. Thankfully, the walk from the car into the liquor store was much shorter. :P

[DarkTirade]

39. Is there any grocery store over there with a decent deli-type thing?

I'm tired of wasting lots of money on lunches. :P I'd much rather buy a somewhat healthy grocery store sandwich than eat at the food court at the mall or the chinese buffet or fast food or any of the other options around there.

9. With that subject line, I knew it was a WNY-er before I saw the OP name!

Isn't this disgusting? WTF! Spring indeed. Temps in the 40s, 50s, and then WHAM--ickies.

I'm just glad it was cool while MG Jr. and Mr. MG were sick all this week. I think it was today's temps that got Mr. MG to go back to work today...for the air conditioning. I have a short one here who's all hot and bothered, and all we can do is lie low in the house and hope for a breeze. I wish he were feeling well enough to hit the sprinkler. :(

Stay cool up the ol' 5&20, BNL! :hi:

[BarenakedLady]

12. Thanks!

Try to stay cool over there. Sorry about your little guy. :(

[MorningGlow]

18. Will do

Little guy is better, thanks--that little visit to Strong on Monday evening really helped speed up the healing. He's not quite 100 percent, but at least he's playing now. I'm debating taking him outside, but he didn't last long out there yesterday--played with his toy lawnmower while I (finally) planted our veggies, and then suddenly, "Mama...I need to sit down for a minute." Poor booger.

On edit: stray comma

[Chan790]

10. How is it you New Yorkers have 90-degree heat...

and us Nutmeggers 50-100 miles east have 60s and rain for what seems like days?

Edit: Western NY staters...more like 200 miles. That makes sense.

[BarenakedLady]

13. Oh, it's coming.

Bwahahaha.

[applegrove]

17. It has been wet and unseasonably cool here in Ontario. The forests all

look like rainforests they have so much water. I hope June is nice. I'm looking for some nice sunny days before the heatwave and humidity of July start.

[BarenakedLady]

26. The humidity kills me. (n/t)

[applegrove]

34. Yes today is a very humid day: 88%. Thankfully it isn't very hot - only around

twenty. I went out for a walk. Now I need a shower.

[In_The_Wind]

19. I was wrapped in a blanket one day, wearin' shorts the next.

I gave up on springtime in New York years ago.

[BarenakedLady]

28. I've lived here 14 years.

The weather still boggles my mind.

[NJmaverick]

20. Well once you get to June, it is pretty much summer time

who is more pissed about the weather, you or your spinach?:evilgrin:

[BarenakedLady]

29. Me!

Damn the spinach!

They are mighty tasty though.

:D

[NJmaverick]

36. Oh yeah! Nothing beats fresh garden spinach

Shame it has such a short harvest time.

[KatyMan]

22. Well, it's certainly grown a lot

since I grew up there, but it's still there as far as I know:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spring,_Texas

[BarenakedLady]

24. Hehe.

:)

[GreenPartyVoter]

23. Well, we nevah did git much of a spring heah in Maine. Jest mud season followed by

forsythia and rhododendrons that switched to leaves in a week straight.

(Seriously, though, global climate change is ruining my state. I heard that eventually all the maple trees will be up in Canada and the oceans will be so acidic that we'll lose a lot of what's left of our seafood trade.)

[BarenakedLady]

25. That sucks.

The weather here is always crazy, but this is ridiculous.

[FloridaJudy]

32. Over 90 daily for 2 weeks now

Why, oh why, did I ever move to Florida?

[femmocrat]

33. We are in the 90s in w. PA.

I hate the heat!!!

It was too damn cold and rainy all of May to do any gardening, and now it is too damn hot. My garden looks terrible.

Can't win. x(

[dolo amber]

35. Spring was downsized due to economic concerns

[Throd]

37. Nicer weather could not be possible here in Sacramento

About 79 degrees, a few poofy clouds scooting by in a gentle breeze...

[EnviroBat]

38. It was noce here in April, but actually chilly in May?

Then, all of the sudden hotter than crotch-pot cookin.

[1gobluedem]

40. Summer ate it

It's 92 here in SE Michigan.

[mvd]

41. Global warming

The winters are shorter and the springs shorter. It's like June came and a switch was turned on. At least we did get some nice spring weather here this year.
