Why won't winter die this year?

saw some yellow pansies coming up
these are perennials, not the one bought in the garden center right now

Actually it is a warm day (not icy winds like earlier this week) and am taking a chance to dry a small load of laundry outside before the skies open up with the thunderstorm/rain later. Ontario finally gets some decent warm spring air this month--thank you, thank you!

It feels like 28 degrees here with the humid x, so weird to not only be able to spend the whole morning outside but have to remove layers because it's so warm out.

May 12th and it was finally warm here in Halifax yesterday it got over 20 degrees! Wooo! However a few days before it was snowing in Sydney, Cape Breton. Worst winter ever!

It was humid this afternoon following a rain-super weird. Then the day cooled off as the sky got overcast again. Repeat for tomorrow.

Still snowing in NF?
from theweathernetwork "Temperatures dropped to the minus single digits in parts of Newfoundland's Interior Thursday morning and yes, SNOW was falling,"

It wouldn't be unusual here in SK to get flurries any time... but luckily, we haven't

All of you need to get to the weather thread in the Tea Room for posting what it's like where you are!

We had a frost warning last night. My veggies are starting to sprout as well as the flowers I planted

Things still look ok, hopefully the sunshine all day today will counteract any damage frost might have done.

Yesterday morning was cold so I brought a jacket. Then it warmed up and I had to carry my jacket the whole freaking day


This morning was warmer so I left the jacket at home. Then it got crazy cold at lunch time and now I will be cold the rest of the day. Weather app lied to me

Ah, I feel just cooler coming to a thread that has 'winter' in it! Miss ya, winter!

Summer does need jackets and I just realized that like those cotton-nylon pants that zip off into shorts, so too should jackets to make long sleeves zip down to short sleeves or even sleeveless.

I made a vest and added short sleeves to help with the temperature changes between outside and inside stores. Still need a long sleeve jacket and I should look at the pant pattern I have to see how the zipper feature is added and adapt it for the jacket.

You can get the Athens wardrobe made up from the August 2014 issue of Burda Style. Indigo in Eaton Centre likely has the issue in stock. Also Great Cdn News by the Hockey Hall of Fame.

You are most welcome! Stave off winter 2014-15...
