We're OK here: Sunshine to start, then a few afternoon clouds. High 77F. Winds W at 5 to 10 mph.
Welcome to SoCal. While the beaches are open, the beach parking lots are still closed; go figure.

Yup , I'm not liking it at all . I have 24 tomato plants in the garden to try to save from frost. and about 40 more plants that should have been in the ground by now , I'm glad they aren't.

The lawn mower is out but I haven’t yet drained the snowblower so I am hedging my bets. And given that this spring and summer for that matter are pretty much devoid of anything fun, I would prefer we just fast forward about eight months anyway.

It's spring like here finally, but we can get some major May snow storms. I live in the only place I know of that 4th of July fireworks were cancelled due to snow one time. (I thought it would have been cool if they went ahead with them.)

Heavy Duty Volcano eruptions can turn summers into winter but none of those lately, thank goodness!

Mackaydon - a couple weeks bac I took a drive out past Cuyamaca Peak and continued on past Julian making a nice loop back to Lake Shore Drive
above Lake Murray. It is already getting too hot, course I'm a Michigan boy so I more or less like the weather cooler. 63bkpkr

Read about the "Maunder minimum" and you'll know why it's still winter. It's gonna get worse in the next few years. No sunspots. Cooler temps. Gary

1816-The Year Without a Summer.

yea we're overdue.

we barely had a winter here in pa,
now this year we need sun and warmth for our health.
and so far things ain't looking like they want to cooperate :tongue3:

of Course if I Believed in Mind/Weather Control I'd take Credit for the Lack of winter.
as every time they suggested it would get bad, I was willing it to not come because of my leaky tarp roof.
and it worked.

but I doubt I Can Will the Cold away :laughing9:

Seems cooler here in the desert these days.
I don't like to second guess mother nature, she might turn the heat up to 120 for a month that's bad.
Hope it's going to be dry summer.
