Looking forward to April
This has been a tough winter snow, ice, freezing weather and what next.I hope everyone is ok. This is a bad winter. If my wife was to work outside she would change her mind about moving south.

Re: Looking forward to April
Cold here too near Houston. Having freezing rain now, schools closed, 20F tomorrow night! Those are orange trees. Shouldn't have too much damage as the lowest temperatures don't last very long. The bark on the trees may crack however and the leaves may defoliate.

Re: Looking forward to April
February is supposed to be better than average both temperature and moisture-wise.

Re: Looking forward to April
Coastal Ga has had quite a few nights of freezing weather. We lost power for a day and a half and I lost about thirty orchids in my little greenhouse. 26 degrees tomorrow night. Sure beats 35 below zero that we had in eastern Maine when I was a kid,

Re: Looking forward to April
Plus side of freezing temperatures in central Alberta this week. That's short sleeve weather for us! No more than 2 inches of snow on the ground here all winter. Global warming is really messing with what's supposed to be normal.

Re: Looking forward to April
Same here in NW Ark. Snow on the ground and below zero. Can't remember when it was below zero here before. Been bitter cold! Wind chill 13 below. This global warming is getting tiresome.
It seems the older I get, the colder cold gets. |

Re: Looking forward to April
I guess you fellows are no better off then me. This month half over anyway. We will see what Feb. like. I will be glad when we ALL are through this mess. I wonder what Buffalo, N.Y. like. They are use to this. I always though that was the worst place in the winter. Now I think its not to good here also. No ones sled rides any more around here these days. We use to love to sled ride when I was a boy. No one today puts chains on any more also. I guess only in the mountains. Just big trucks half to. Front wheel drive, all wheel drive and 4 wheel drive solve that problem today. When I was a young boy down at Dads garage he sell alcohol to put in radiators to keep from freezing up but would boil out and you had to add more. It was cheaper then antifreeze back then. Some people use to drain there radiator every night. Some use kerosene in the radiator. I guess that worked? They also had there problems also back then.
