    Over here
    I watch a fair amount of BBC programming...a sunny day over there really does seem to be a rarity. I suppose it's a trade-off for relatively mild winters? Getting sunshine here, but still chilly. Things are beginning to green up very rapidly.

    Drove home in snow flurries late Thursday afternoon. Still waiting for spring - which is supposedly going to start today. Lots of wind though so will feel cooler than we would like.

    Dave you are somewhat familiar with southern MI weather and we're now on our 5th day in a row of relatively warm weather with today being really warm at 71. Some rain tomorrow then back in the 50's but we've really been waiting for this. I haven't been out lately but suspect farmers might be out working ground today; at least that ground that is dry enough.

    A few fields are and have been plowed around me, pretty mushy yet, sure makes a mess of the suv or truck because of the spin off all over the roads.

    All kinds of wet here. Some of the high fields got corn planted this week, but I have a feeling most of the low ones will be lucky to get a crop of beans planted by the time they dry out.
