Nice day today. Feels like Spring. I can hear the plants growing. Unfortunately that includes the lawn, which needs to be mowed. But given that it is the size of a postage stamp, that won't take long.

Re: Current weather
 

More rain ahead

Re: Current weather
 

Maybe another half to inch of rain headed our way as well, beginning tonight or late tomorrow morning. Currently 52.8F outside but got down to 39.8F last night.

Re: Current weather
 

we could use some rain, bone dry here.

Re: Current weather
 

We're about 25% of normal here for rain, Ante. Our first significant rain since last fall was about two weeks ago.

The so-called Miracle March of 1991 resulted in a lot of rain following a very dry winter that helped fill up our reservoirs here in California. I don't think that we're going to get enough to match that but this is very welcome although it's harmful to our fruits that are blooming now (cherries, peaches, etc.).

Re: Current weather
 

That last storm wiped out all my plum blossoms :(

Re: Current weather
 

Bummer. My plums had already set fruit, so they're OK, but not sure about the peach and nectarine.

Re: Current weather
 

Just the opposite for I have good size fruit on nectarine , peach and apricot

Re: Current weather
 

Strange huh? I originally thought that everything happened earlier down in SD for you, but maybe it's largely differences among cultivars. My apricots also set (just a few fruit, but I only planted them last year) before the storm. Early peach varieties (e.g., May Pride) have already all set locally. My peach and nectarine must be later (but unknown) varieties.

Re: Current weather
 

Wheres the heat ?

Re: Current weather
 

Weather Forecast Managua, Nicaragua | Managua Weather | Wunderground 90F right now :)

Re: Current weather
 

By the way, what constitutes "summer"? Even though Nicaragua is in the northern hemisphere they don't seem to use the same seasonal calendar as us in the U.S. They say it is now summer there as they have hot dry weather now and by May the weather is cooler with rains. Is it actually spring there based on the phase of our orbit but they have summer-like weather?

Re: Current weather
 

51 degrees and rainy. We've had nearly an inch of rain overnight.

Re: Current weather

NOAA weather forcasting.. for some of us it looks like
a possible tough summer.. :(
i hope texas doesnt get a repeat of last summer !! i felt for our
friends down there..farmers/ranchers/garden enthusiasts..

Re: Current weather
 

We ended up with about 1.5" of rain from the weekend storm -- probably the most we've had the whole winter. What'd you guys to south get?

Re: Current weather
 

To all that are getting rain: Be kind, send some my way.

Dry last year, dry the year before, looking to be a dry year this year...
Iv had to actually water my established trees this winter.
So few cold fronts went by to drop off some rain...

Hopefully Florida, at least in my area, has a nice wet summer.. GOOD wet though!! Not bad storm, hurricane wet!!

Re: Current weather
 

I hope you get more rain BananaT. Even though we had a good dousing this weekend and last, it hasn't made up for a drier than average rainy season for us in most of California.
