What is your weather like today?

Springtime in Alabama (perfect temperature, blue sky with puffy clouds, gentle breeze, lovely flowers) makes living here the rest of the year (too hot, too cold, too windy, too dry, too wet, too bare) so-o-o-o worth it...EXCEPT spring days like today...RAINY and COLD.

Four days can make such a difference. Gorgeous blue sky, puffy clouds, perfect termperature, gentle breeze, flowers blooming and birds singing...Springtime in Alabama makes living here the rest of the year so-o-o-o worth it!!!!! )'>

Helen, this is terrible. That's a ton of snow! The melt is going to be awful. And those poor baby lambs. I hope the weather takes a swift turn for the better, but then the flooding that could happen may not be such a easy thin either. I'm not being very encouraging am I, sorry.

Yes farmers have lost hundreds of lambs in the unexpected freeze. In some areas the army had to be called out to help dig livestock out, because it was too dangerous to ask volunteers of the public. The snow can fill up steep ravines and gullies so they look like flat land and an untrained person could tread on them and disappear by falling through and badly hurting themselves or worse.

Wildlife is also suffering. Hundreds of little corpses of puffins are being washed up on our shores as they are starving. Badgers and hedgehogs are starving because all the previous wet weather drowned earthworms and slugs that they rely on and now the ground is still frozen hard. Wildlife sanctuaries have so far received over 100 barn owls emaciated and unable to breed. I am putting as much left-overs,grapes and seed out for the birds in the garden as there is nothing for them - it's too cold for the usual diet of insects to emerge anywhere yet.

Another beautiful day today, but supposed to have stormy weather tomorrow and Thursday. Thunderstorms, high winds, possible tornadoes.
