Crazy Crazy Northern Weather

I’ve often heard the English joke about how unpredictable the weather here is, but this is a little extreme. Last week the weather was a balmy 80ish degrees. The girls were playing naked in the paddling pool with no complaints. I even wrote a blog post claiming that Spring had sprung. I had my strappy shirts out and was ready to pack the winter coats away. This week…this is the view out of my bedroom window this morning!

that poor Forsythia

That poor forsythia, I wonder if its blooms will survive this. It’s still coming down too; big fluffy flakes that pile up. I simply can’t believe it.

I don’t suppose I should call it a cultural experience, but it is certainly a new experience for me to live somewhere that the weather can change so drastically in such a short amount of time. Shocking!

    Michael – Funny you say that, this weather makes me want tomato soup, so thats what I had for lunch.

    Williams – It is lovely actually, but on April 4th – 4 days after T-shirt weather? Crazy I say.

    Totally nuts! That is kind of fun though. I lived in NY for a while and it liked to throw variations like that as often as possible. Keeps you guessing. 🙂 Enjoy your (hopefully) last bit of winter!
