How's the Weather? | Pad Patter 04.15.23

It has been super nice this week. 70's and 80 yesterday. Supposed to be nice again today but rain tomorrow and Monday with the high on Monday around 40. Looks like temps are on a rollercoaster ride next week... up and down and up again!

I love this weather because I hate cold. Being nice yesterday actually inspired me to run to Lima to run a couple of errands that I've been wanting to do for awhile. I've been wanting a frame for a layout I'm giving to my cousin that I did to commemorate the ashes disposal of her son on the Ohio River last summer. She texted me a photo while it was being done.

I did a couple of small things outside (getting all those pesky leaves that gathered on the patio since December out of there) and took a couple of short walks with Peyton. And, now since it got nice I've been able to say hi to the neighbors I don't see all winter!

 

I live in Alberta, Canada. When I left for Phoenix last Monday we had snow on the ground, and it’s snowed 3 times this week according to hubby. It melts same day but the accumulation of snow has not gone away (from shoveling driveway, etc). Spring is NOT springing lol. The weather next week looks ok though, about 10’c (50 F), which is warm to us (summer it’s 25ish - 77’F, anything more than that is only for a few days/ maybe a week or two and we feel like we are dying lol)

 

I'm glad you know to check yourself for ticks Lisa! Eek!

How's the weather?
The weather here is warming up, but it seems to be going in spurts. It was 30F last week, 70F this week. The forecast looks like it will waver between 40F and 60F this coming week. I don't like when it warms up because then the spiders appear in our house and surprise me and my kids which I do not appreciate.

What's your favorite season and why?
Fall is probably my favorite season because I love watching the leaves change colors and the bugs disappear and the weather get cooler. I also love not having to mow the lawn any more and not having to shovel snow, though I'd much rather shovel snow than mow the lawn.

 

I live in the Phoenix AZ area where it is warm and sunny all year and unpleasantly hot in the summer. So, we've really been enjoying the unusually cool and rainy winter that we had this year. Because of all the rain, the wild flowers went absolutely nuts over the last month -- a historic "superbloom" that has had people out taking pictures all over the dessert. But, all good things must come to an end and this week, we hit 100 for the first time - so the too-hot summer is just around the corner.

 

After a long, hard winter, followed by a damaging ice storm just last week, the weather here in Ottawa, Canada is absolutely glorious this weekend: sunny and mild and springlike at last!

 

That sounds SO nice! I love dogwood trees! I have one- but long story short- deer love them, so it's more of a dead bush with a few leaves. I also don't think they like the cold we have here in the winter.

Today was beautiful in Spokane (eastern) Washington- low 60's. I made the kids do some yard clean up with me- get all the pine needles out of the flower beds and all the pinecones out of the yard. I think hubby will mow for the first time tomorrow! I have a lot of bulbs that are coming up- but no flowers yet. It's JUST started staying above freezing at night- so slowly but surely turning into Spring.

Favorite season here is probably Fall/Autumn. We have warm days, but cooler evenings and usually the most gorgeous sunsets! One of the best things about where I live is that we do get all seasons, so just when you're getting sick of one, another is about to begin!

 

I live in Western North Carolina. It was beautiful today - high 70s. It's been all over the place the last few weeks: cold, rainy, hot, cold again. But I think we are finally going to be seeing the spring weather consistently. I love spring, summer, and fall. Summer used to be my fave, but I think Spring is now...but really, I just like anything except winter. Haha!

 

Well, it was 82 on Friday and then 75? on Saturday and this morning it is snowing again in SW Michigan... so maybe you'll get a little more winter for yourself too Lisa.

 

It was 80s all week and now.. we have a massive snow storm.. like 15 inches.. so mother nature isn't a friend of mine right now

 

I'm in NJ, East Coast US. I spent the weekend at the beach. It was almost 78 on Friday, but very very windy. Saturday was cloudy, cooler, but still nice around 72. And Sunday was a foggy mess. Its early for the weather to be this warm, so I'm a little concerned out summer will be overheated! Summer is usually my favorite!

 

Here our spring - summer starts quickly and do it big, with midnight sun, thunders, lightings, ticks, gnats and mosquitos, temperatures have reached 89.6 F / 32C in past years, and in a house with double wall, it feels like an oven. I hate summer and I do love winter, I don't care if temperatures reach -25 F for a month (usually February), but it feels great to walk on the snow, fresh and a free sensation, thing that I cannot get during summer. Also, there is not thunders, so I can surf on the web with no worries, but during summer I must watch continuously Real time lightning map, what really drains my energy and decrease my creative capacity. And plus spring allergies, that this year have been one of the most awful, so much pollen. Seriously I've ponder to spend the next spring - summer in Argentina.

 

I still don't really have a spring feeling ... it remains fresh, cloudy, rainy.

 

Our weather in Pennsylvania can't make up it's mind. We've had in the past week - a super hot & sunny day and a day that had snow, sleet, hail, rain. It's currently rain, rain and more rain called for today and until next week. I am not minding the temperatures lately because they aren't too hot BUT these kind of days never last too long. It will be super hot before we know it and then the complaining of it being too cold will then shift to the "ugh, it's sooooo hot" My favorite season where I live is Fall. I love the cool but not freezing temps and mostly love all the gorgeous colors of leaves and all - cozy season

 

I live in South Wales in the UK, it is currently 16 Degrees and cloudy. The weather here lately has been miserable, we have had heavy rain on and off for the last few days. I am wishing the warming dryer weather to arrive.
