A cloudy snowy Tuesday evening. This always happen when I think winter is definitely over and spring is here to stay. It was so sunny and warm Easter Sunday. The greenhouse went up to almost 30℃. I merrily planted some of my snowpeas. They were very happy to have more dirt to grab onto. It got a little cooler the next day but still sunny. The temperature dipped at night and it went down to -1℃ in the morning. Still not too bad as we still had a sunny day. I turned on the little heater for night time insurance.
Now the snow is really coming down, soft and feathery. The forecast is for a heavy load – till 4 am. It is a pretty sight to watch. Not too much I can do about it. I might as well have some pleasure from it. The snow peas will be ok. They can tolerate cool temperatures down to -2℃. I have brought my little tomato and pepper seedlings back into the house. They do not thrive in cool temperatures.
I’m not thriving in our present climate either. I took a day off from my keyboard yesterday. I was out of words. It was a good reason to take a rest.

Hi Lily, the weather this time of year is also crazy in NY State. I am glad your snow peas will be okay! We don’t know how to dress these past few weeks.
Yes, it is bouncy. It’s going up to 9℃ Saturday. So maybe no shoveling will be required. It’ll melt.
Lily, I love being reminded of snowy weather. I lived in NY State before Arizona, and I visited Denver sometimes. The resilience of your plants is impressive! Today, it was 80 ish F when I went for a brisk evening walk. Very mild. Your reports remind me that I need to review conversion of C to F. 😃 Blessings–

A fresh fallen snow is so pretty but does it know we are in April?? Hopefully this will be the last surprise snow and you can get your greenhouse growing even more super plants.
