I'm not expecting anything, but at this very moment, the forecast is looking really good for next week!

Sure, there's clouds, rain, and even a little snow, but look at those 40s, 50s, and even a 60! Maybe, just maybe, we're leaving the below-average temperatures behind.

...and this is why I wasn't expecting anything. They were way off on this one.
This morning, we were expecting 65°F on Thursday and Friday.

Suddenly, no day on the forecast is warmer than 50°F. :poop::poop::poop::poop:

There is still hope for you. The weather app on my phone is still showing 56 tomorrow and 60 Thursday.

I don't have much hope. All things considered, it's still a better forecast than what we've had lately. Just not as nice as the high 50s and 60s they were originally predicting.

Windy, sunny, warm enough, but oh the wind! My hair is an overgrown pixie, I had to flip it out of my face when I came back in. I’ll check if they still predict freezing temps over the weekend, but I really want to get my garden started.

Well, we got lucky today! 58°F. The wind is a little cool, but not too bad. My pond area is fairly protected from the wind so it always feels about 5° warmer in there when the sun's out.

Not even to work, I get called from home that prego kitty is in labor. Her mom just had a litter a bit over a week, maybe two ago, and apparently she put her laboring daughter in the box with her kittens and helped her daughter give birth.

Already 52°F today and expecting 62°F! Definitely going to get out and hike later today, because it all goes downhill tonight.

Windy, very windy. Tried to blow me off the road. But it’s warm! Which is nice, but we will see freezing temps over night this weekend, so that sucks.

Windy low 70s

Here's a neat map. Shows you the temps from local weatherstations on people's houses.

Mine is "Texmaster's Town" See if you can find it :D

There's even a short 24 hour video of the weather on each :)

Ugh. 37°F, very windy and rainy.

Every temperature in the forecast is at least 5° to 15° below average, so at this point, we'll be into late April before we see any stretch of average weather. Maybe even later. Winter never ends! I really don't ever remember a Spring like this. We've had cold Aprils, but not like this.
