May. 6th, 2009 10:43 amOkay, this is grossly unfair.
Last week, it got up into the 80s. Our snow melted (resulting in some rather spectacular localized flooding in a few places due to blocked culverts), people wore shorts and short sleeves and were happy, and green-up tried to happen - all the trees sprouted happy little green leavelets.
Today?
IT SNOWED.

I personally would rather be hot than cold, but I know others feel the exact opposite.
When does it normally start to "warm up" 'round your parts?
