    The weather has been quite nice the last couple of days except for yesterday and partially today. The coming days are expected to be quite nice
    as well so hopefully that is how it will be.

    I have some cousins in New Brunswick and on Facebook they have been posting similar things. As well as pictures from their home and the snow piling up.

    Hope you get some spring soon Schmenke, Bagwan and co.

    Here in the east of England today we have had high levels of pollution today, drifting from the south and east.
    Its been very warm (20 degrees) over the last week or so, and we have a dust cloud of Sahara dust over us too, so the cars are all filthy.

    Better than snow though.
    I still exist and still find the forum occasionally. Busy busy

    Quite typical April weather the past week, both sunny and rainy days.

    The difference between the warmest and coldest temperature in Sweden the past weeks is 43 degrees difference.
    The warmest temperature measured the past week is 18 degrees C and the coldest is -25 degrees C.

    The weather is a little chilly today here , and that's a big relief .

    We had a deep winter , and the last few days were in the high teens , with rain thrown in , just to add to the pain .

    I spent yesterday in chest waders , wandering around my basement in water just under 3 feet deep , trying desperately to save treasures like family photo albums , now spread around my home on every flat surface .

    Of course , the basement was set well for the level of the last flood , about 6 years ago now , but this one is more than a foot higher , so much of the bottom shelves and contents are now floating or sinking , making moving around in the swirl of precious detritus a little treacherous , to say the least .

    It's a little heart breaking , finding little reminders of yours and your family's lives floating by , ruined , but I guess mother nature decided it was time to purge ourselves of a few things .

    We saved lots of stuff .
    I just hope we can see the river recede before too long , so I can maybe save more .

    Floods suck . They really do .

    We have our first real autumnal day. There is a strong warmish North-Westerly bringing in plenty of rain. It is expected to swing to the South this afternoon, effectively bring the rain that has just passed overhead back for another go.

    Was pretty sunny here today and temps around 10 degrees.

    However i saw this tweet from Toronto:

    Seriously,Toronto not get the memo? SNOW? So distraught I can't even bring myself to make a 'playoffs/golf' joke.

    Quite facinating that a city that is "much" further south then where I live (42N versus 58N) still is having winter while over here
    the spring has really swept in all over the country. Lots if migrating birds have already returned from their winter quarters and etc.

    Horrible cold rainy day in my hometown with a max of 9 C.
    Also snow in some parts of the country.

    Well, after several days of relatively spring-like weater it's now snowing hard with accumulation warnings in the mountaints just to the west of the city

    Have the day off on Friday, and the kids are off school, so we'll make the most of it and head for the hills .
