Apart from some snow, nearly .most of the precipitation was in the form of rainfall. Including one rather odd Thunderstorm.
Turned out, these past two months made for placing ninth in the records, for amounts of precipitation. Did I mention that also likely translated into record number of Cloudy days, too ?
About a week of freezing, give a few degrees above, or below 32°F. It is still a muddy yard.
While now it is still in the 50's, & was in a short sleeved shirt today, with the sun out.

If it doesn't have frost for a few more weeks, then I'd about say Spring may have arrived.

Though, after that odd event in TX. could just be a clue, that a very late ice storm may occur. After some trees have either flowered, or already leafed out.
I suppose that's climate change for you, being rather unpredictable.

Too much rain, or snow. Possibly not enough snow in winter, & next you're facing a drought, later. Too darned cold, at the wrong time or too hot by summer, & you get a heatwave.
It's anybody's guess, this year.
