Snow!
« on: 13 Mar, 2021, 01:10:11 pm »
Looks like I shall need to rent a St Bernard next friday and saturday!!  Looking at my forecast it will be almost wall to wall snow both days.  Guess who has recently planted some small trees?  I will need to cover them plus a lot of other tender plants.  I should have learnt from past experience not to plant anything new until mid May! :cry:

I knew we had rain forecast wall to wall Friday and Saturday in Partaloa so I looked again and daytime temperatures are dropping to 7/8° and night time 4/5° so can well believe there will be snow back on the mountains

Phew!  Forecast has changed to 'just' heavy rain for those 2 days. 
I can remember having some snow in early May one year.  It didn't lay but was enough to break one of the fronds from my Washintonian Palm.
I might be sowing my seeds this week after all... :grin:

Crikey!  Just looked  again and not only is the snow sign back but the temperatures have also dropped to well below 0.  Hard to think that will be the case as I have been working outside this morning and took all my fleeces (3) off!
