He was in Cleveland today, Addie. Sunny, 80 degrees, light wind off of the lake that you can't see across to Canada - so it's a little like the ocean. Wish I had been there. But, I'm stuck in the rain too. Since I had nowhere to go and we can use more rain to build up the ground water, I ain't complaining.
My main concern is as always the water supply to the Quabbin Reservoir. So I pulled up the supposedly Monthly Report. I think they are a little behind.
I remember many moons ago when the level was so low you could see the whole town on the bottom very clearly. The affected communities were put on partial rations.
Snowing, really!?! In late April? Can't believe it. It's mostly sunny and 85 here now. I bought more plants today at the horticultural class sale at a nearby high school and it's too hot to plant them ?
It's been snowing all day here and will through Sunday morning. Here's hoping the snow will insulate all things vegetative when the predicted temps drop to 20*F tomorrow night.
I just hope the Flowering Almond and Pussy Willow are fine. I think the Ash and Poplar will be okay. I'm glad I didn't have time to rake up the old leaves and such they will help with insulation. I got my live plant shipment yesterday, I have it tucked in a cooler in the garage.
Strongest winds I've experienced here in the city overnight. I couldn't sleep, thinking about my next door neighbor's 75 foot pine trees may come crashing down on my roof.
