Settled and frozen this morning.
Not good for me, I am off to the airport this morning. Definately chose the wrong week to travel because the weather seems just as bad in the UK.

Trying to escape the arctic east winds in the UK.

Most of the snow should be gone by then as rain is forecast Thursday/Friday but it will still be cold! Looks like a taster of what global warming has in store as this is quite something this late in the year - 35-40cm of snow.....

Non stop snow yesterday in Tapsony, about 2 feet deep, some more snow on and off today. Owever On a brighter note my friend says she has seen a stork in Zalacaros, not looking too happy sat on it's nest. Either he's early, very eager to please his mate or stupid. Hope he can tweet the rest of the gang to delay departure from warmer climes.

NNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! !
Got up at 6 this morning and it's snowing again:thumbdown:
I didn't see that in the forecasts. Not good as I've got 2 13 hour days ahead, most of it outdoors:frown:

Okay, so its snowing again and more forecast for tomorrow :thumbdown:

Can any old timers share their experiences of when this might stop? Perhaps it is a sign of a long summer (she says hopefully) :blink:

Due to lots of rain on Saturday and Sunday all ours has gone and there's no more snow forecast :thumbup:

This won't come to anything, we had some with enormous flakes on Sunday but as Paul said, it was too wet to lie.
I think it's safe to say that is it for this year though we might get some late frosts in May. Apart from the snow, I don't think it's far off kilter. Since being here, there is usually a week or so of nice weather in March - which we had, then April is typically quite wet with the weather warming up which is forecast albeit a few degrees lower than is usual for this time of year. To be honest, I'm hoping it's not as dry as last summer as locals lost much of their crops:(
