    How's your weather this spring?

    Here in NNY it has been cool, cloudy and rainy. even by our standards.. My squash plants are on strike, refusing to grow anymore until we get some decent weather!

    Very green, very wet, minor flooding in lots of places where there was none before. The plants, trees, and flowers love it. It is like driving through a tropical forest in places.

    PS I'm sure some homeowners are less happy than those plants.

    I'll go with this. There is something I really like about every season.

    Here in Central Florida spring has been hot and dry. The ice caps are melting and most of the polar bears have gone North. Seriously, last week the temperature hit 102 in Ocala with a 96% humidity. Can't wait until the summer (which runs from Mid May to the end of November)

    A rainier spring than in recent years -- more like the springs we had 15 years ago or so. Looks like the brome will do very well and my garden looks amazing.

    We had a lot of rain in May. Now we get some heavy but short storms in the early evening. The last few days have been cooler than normal. Today it was around 70 degrees, sunny, and windy.

    It stayed unseasonably cool here in Arizona for most of May, then the temperature shot up suddenly nearly thirty degrees. We went from high temps in the seventies, low eighties, to 107, even 110 the other day. We went from the coolest May in decades to the earliest "excessive heat" warnings in decades.

    *wipes brow* Yep. Still, the most comfortable May in my memory giving us here one less month of hell-like temps.
