Snow and Ice

Snow Day!! Presidents day came in like a weather lion, Cold temperatures on Sunday led to snow fall, but it melted off by the afternoon, Tuesday morning, temps in the high 20's and snow falling more with a decent amount expected all through the day.





Colchicum hungaricum 'Valentines Day'

Narcissus romiuexii
A weird weather year for sure, one of the mildest winters up until Feburary and now it seems to be kicking into gear! Expecting 6" of snow today then cold temps throughout the week.

Cheers, 
Mark
