FEBRUARY 17, 2016 – WHAT IS THIS?

Ok, now I am officially shocked, and a bit worried! Only a short 10 days ago:

  • 3-6foot snow drifts (the middle horizontal bar in our greenhouse is up about 10 feet; just to explain how high a lot of the drifts were.)

  • Minus single digit weather at night (we have a heater in our fish pond so it doesn’t freeze – 2 huge fish in there!)

  • Wind gusts more than 50mph (I can always tell how bad the wind is by how much of the road you can see – AFTER – the plow as gone by!)

Then this week:

  • Only specks of any snow remain

  • 65°F today and expecting 70+°F tomorrow – February 18, 2016

WWWWHHHHAAAATTTT????

This has got to be the freakiest winter I have ever seen – here or in Wisconsin! Colorado can have 60’s in January, and it’s not unusual. But to get this warm in February – now that’s down right abby-normal (I love Young Frankenstein!)! Not sure if I should let my spring fever run amok or batten down the hatches and prep for the apocalypse – oooohhhhh (that’s a ghostly ooh by the way – LOL – too spooky!)

oh no ghost

  1. 70 degrees here in Arkansas today. The weather has been freaky all over the U.S. this winter. We are not sure here, whether this is Sping or not, either. Guess we all have to wait and see. Watch out for Mother Nature, she is unpredictable.
