what happens at "DIY fest" stays there - provided the cameras are looking the other way, that is

methinks the lad doth protest too much?

 

[cogitech]

Ah yes. I have always been slightly curious about the goings on of VI DIY Fest, and I kick myself every year for missing it.

Maybe, just maybe this will be the year I finally make it.

Right, I was thinking of Ashcroft. Brain fart.

When we hit over 40 here last summer for a couple days, I felt "hot" for the first time since I moved here. Still, at night it dropped to below 20. Freakin' perfect!

Lucky you up in canada. It already hit 35C , I'll now have the next 150 days
between 35-40C .... at night never below 30C (unholy humid , as well).

I've been out in the west , 45C and dry is heaven compared to 40C with
90% humidity (Knoxville , tenn. USA)

so much for spring,
yup, lucky, beautiful here, crocus starting to flower, daffs/tulips up and going, no sump pump yet, not like last spring. i think the frost/ground has thawed.
i live about 1 hr north of toronto, Lake simcoe area, the many trees keep it cool usually compared to asphalt city.
Saskatchewan is really nice in the summer, sun sets at 10:00 twilight till 11:00, nice long days, that is why the birdies like it too

WTF????? It is flipping SNOWING outside. Not much, but it IS snow! Thermometer says 32F, 0C.

 

[rsavas]

Same here!!

 

[esgigt]

Over here a nice 13 C ... feels almost like spring ... which is a long way from Teen Spirit

It was 37F this morning when I got the papers, snowed in the ancestral homeland last night and we may have a freeze this evening here in NJ.

Hail early this aft that lasted a full 10 minutes, not kidding. It made the grass white and the dog nervous. (metal patio roof). 10 minutes. I've not seen that before.

 

[jackinnj]

30F @6:00 a.m. here in NJ

I heard the wind whistling through the trees in the early AM and looked out to see some snow blowing nearly sideways. None on the ground this morning but it has rained. Radar shows snow over much of Western Pennsylvania and West Virginia. It's headed east, but will probably turn to rain as it warms up.

 

[gasboss775]

Last few weeks were like summer almost, then 2 days ago it snowed!

Hail early this aft that lasted a full 10 minutes, not kidding. It made the grass white and the dog nervous. (metal patio roof). 10 minutes. I've not seen that before.

A full ten minutes, that would be rare here too. What about these places that get golf ball sized hailstones!

You must be Canadian too?

USA, Canada too. ...But USA in tornado alley and hurricane east coast.

How's George and Cal and Chris and Jeff today, weather wise?

 

[vinylkid58]

Hey Frank, you saw hail too where you live. ...Small world; you guys are experiencing similar weather @ the same time than us here in Victoria and Vancouver neighborhood.
But from those pictures you had it more violently.
