I've mowed it several times this season already, too... Last night I was watching the snow fall (and last Saturday) though last nights 3-4" is already completely melted off the streets/sidewalks and just about melted on the grass. We have not yet mowed our lawn this year, but it is about due and the early flowers have bloomed. I live in Colorado though and snows this time of year are actually fairly common and thus not unexpected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think we've ever had less of it where I live than this winter. A few days ago we had a heat wave with temperature all the way up to 14C (57F)!!! Today it's back to a more normal 4C (40F).

I don't think we've ever had less of it where I live than this winter. Our winter was quite dry compared to normal -- until about 6 weeks ago. I'm pretty sure we've had more snow in the last 6 weeks than the entire 6 months before that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scylla Rhiadra Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 About 2 or 3 cms. of snow on the ground this morning. And it ain't melting yet. It's not that weird here. We've occasionally had snow in May. But that doesn't mean I have to like it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleMe Jewell Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 (edited) Given that Colorado is currently only at 85% of average snowpack, I'll not complain too much about the recent snow. They are already forecasting record low levels for a couple of the damned lakes that provide parts of the west with their summer water. They may drop low enough that we get our first Federally declared water shortage. There is even a projection that shows Hoover Damn may be in danger of not being able to generate as much electricity as it normally does.
