minus-squareslingstone@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 months agoWow. What a difference latitude makes! It’s already inching toward far too hot here in South Carolina.

minus-squareslingstone@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 months agoMontana seems beautiful, but that’s insane to me.
minus-squareMadzielle@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·edit-22 months agoIn New England we also dont plant outdoors until mother’s day. Its wild too because this last week our lows at night were 40°-45° with heavy rains. My tomato seedlings are not… doing well.
minus-squareSchmidtGenetics@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 months agoOh to make it funner, it was 26c last week, and will be 27c next week as well. There’s no real spring, straight from cold to heat.
minus-squareslingstone@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 months agoFun. For us, much of the winter we have days getting up well above 21c (or 70 F for our non-metric foolishness). Of course, then we’ll have a week or two below freezing. I guess weather is crazy all over.
minus-squareSchmidtGenetics@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2arrow-down1·2 months agoHah, we have a rather unique weather phenomenon up here. I learned a little ago, it causes stuff in NE States as it goes too. often from below −20 °C (−4 °F) to as high as 10–20 °C (50–68 °F) for a few hours or days, then temperatures plummet to their base levels.
