Currently here, in Aurora, ME..53F Degrees, Dew Point 33F Degrees, Winds WNW 11mph..
Clear and Breezy..
Hung the laundry out this afternoon...Noticed the beginnings of Wood Violets popping their heads-up in the flower beds (I transplantted them from the Meadows), Grass greening...
Believe a Beaver has returned to the Creek...Both Beloved and a Friend witnessed a stiring in the water down by the lower Beaverdam...
Red-Winged Blackbirds (and their OBNOXIOUS friends, the Grackles), have returned enforce...Many Sparrows are feeding under the Bird Feeders and in the Lilac Grove...(White-Chinned Sparrows, White Crowned Sparrows, Chipping Sparrows and Song Sparrows have been sighted), while aplenty of Black-Capped Chickadees have arrived to frolic with the one who stayed all year, togehter with the Nuthatches have returned to consume their share of seeds.
The Blue Jays have gone away and rarely visit! A Purple Finch displayed his splendor with a song...Even a Female Cardinal arrived for a bite and left.
The Birch Meadows is a symphony of Song Birds...Still, I await the pair of Rose-Breasted Grossbeaks returning to the Lilac Grove...longing for their song at daybreak..
This brief reprieve of warmth and sun is invigorating and comforting...Rumor has it that the reminder of the week may remain the same...Thankfully hoping!
20F-30F temperatures are much more comfortable than 85F+ temperatures with dew points 70F+. I think you just like to complain.
How is it that Cuba would be any better than Florida? I know your answer is “there’s more rain,” which is strange because that rain just makes things even more humid.
April 2nd North Carolina snow and was one of the latest on records for Charlotte
April 14th Thundersnow in Chicago and tied the record for latest snowiest day. Another 0.1" fell after this tweet so it was 5.4".
April 27th Latest 2"+ on record for Rockford, Illinois. Thundersnow in Iowa and a 4-6" snowfall for Chicago Burbs.
April 28th Blizzard in Montana
Make that 5. How did I forget about this one? April 10-12 Blizzard in northern Plains. Nebraska, South Dakota into Minnesota with 6-12"+. Not sure if there were records, I'll have to check.
Here's a couple of tweets from NWS Aberdeen for the "Historic" Spring Blizzard which had lightning and Thundersnow with it. Dropped 6-12"+ from Nebraska, South Dakota into Minnesota and lasted 2 days.
Forecast low of 32 F/0 C. Frost Advisory from midnight to 7AM. My heat kicked on this morning for the first time in a while. Probably going to kick on at least once overnight. Last time maybe?
