2020 - How's The Weather By You?

I had to go out today (late afternoon) hubs came with me, we had to collect a few items from various stores... once we get out of our own rural area , we have to travel to the nearest largish town via a dual carriageway ( 4 lanes 2 each side) which is mightily busiy during rush hour morning and night , and even at weekends because it connects several large town to 3 counties...

On the way to and from the town the roads were like 5am on a Sunday morning, instead of 6.15pm rush hour ... very quiet roads, flowers growing in the central reservation I've never seen grow there in all the years I've lived here , beautifully warm and sunny and with barely a car in sight, and absolutely zero Trucks, delivery vans and lorries .

As I haven't been out in the world for a a bit of a while except in my own garden and the woods behind my house I hadn't noticed the difference in the air quality only the difference in noise levels..because we can hear the noise of the traffic in the distance from here..... ..

When we got home, and stepped out of the car I was immediately assailed by the sweet clear cut smell of Fresh air, like I haven't smelled in years, probably since I was a child .....and remember I already live in a rural area, so it shows just how far exhaust fumes etc, carry in the air as they must be doing from the Motorways and busy roads... I can only describe this freshness like standing on the top of a mountain on a clear sunny but cool day .. where you can just breathe deep and feel as though you couldn't have anything more fresh in your lungs . Absolutely amazing...
 

I think March and April are mixed up. Had a really nice March, not so much for April. Other than the odd day here and there in April, has been unusually cold. This past week, snow flurries several times daily, and weirdly out of blue sky. Has anyone heard of the saying " what the weather is like on Good Friday...it is such for 40 days " Well, our Good Friday, was a nice day, sun, little bit of cloud, light breeze, +10. Not as such since then, so much for that wisdom.
 
We had snow today in the Windy City! It's been only in the 30's for the past few days, brrr.
 

Beautiful, sunny, wonderful spring weather (a little chilly, but so what?) ... tempting to go out, but I'm trying not to.
 
Another Glorious sunny day... that about 3 weeks now.. low to mid 70's today. ☀

We've been working in the garden all day..I keep coming in for a few minutes for a rest...🌞
 
Yesterday was the first in many that there wasn't a breakout of flurries every 20 minutes, yesterday morn woke to -12, warmed up to +2. Today, woke up to -9, bright and sunny, light breeze, predicted to warm up to +5, we'll see, the sun is certainly getting some warmth to it.......Bring out the HEAT.........PLEASE.
