Unusually Warm
Apparently, in the UK, the astronomical spring begins on 20 March 2019, according to the Met office. That's in 3 days time! Whatever happened to the cold, dreaded winter that was predicted for this year?
I took the above photo on what was probably the coldest day we had this winter. It was cold, but it wasn't sub-zero as demonstrated by the non-frozen liquid on the floor. The ice formation to the right is clearly artificial. Seeing this on the moon would strongly support the alien theory :)
This time last year was still freezing. I remember it to be one of, if not the coldest winter I've ever personally experienced. Older people say there've been colder winters in the past. This was followed by the warmest and longest summer I've ever seen in the UK. Naturally, I was dreading this year's winter, but so far, all we've had is a relatively cool-coldish winter, with a weird fortnight of spring weather in February.
What does this mean? Are we going to have an even warmer and longer summer than we did last year - since we will be starting from warmer temperatures in spring (probably)? Or is it going to be back to the normal British summer?
Either way, it seems things are getting less and less predictable these days. Everything is changing.
Another unusual thing we've had this winter has been a lot of wind. Yes, it's normally windy in early spring time, but we don't usually get back to back gale winds the way it's happened so far this month. A couple of nights ago I thought we were having an all out hurricane. Thankfully it's my neighbours responsibility, and not mine, to fix the fence blown down by the high winds.
The winds have calmed a bit, so I was able to spend some time in the woods without fear of getting speared in the head. It was calm and peaceful until the dogs arrived and started on what seemed like a barking contest. Bless them, it was their natural habitat before we domesticated them.
I am looking forward to some warmer weather now. I wasn't designed for the cold. I just about survive it every year I think. This winter has been kind to us here, and I'm hoping for a nice spring.
Peace and Love ✌🏿

The poor cows. They didn't ask for this :(
Yah, a lot of people seems to complain about the harsh cold in Europe and US. Am just wondering, people have not adapted to it yet?
I don't think you can ever adapt to the kind of cold temperatures that happen in Europe/North America.
I see.
I think nobody is made for the cold outside. Look into nature, she dies every year. I think something is wrong with the weather. The grey and cloudy skies are even more than the sunny ones. That´s definitely no normal process.
Indeed, the weather has become unpredictable. We are waiting for one, we get another. I also noticed that the winters are much warmer, there are already -40 when I froze my fingers. This winter we had -20 and only 2 nights.

Here was muddy and lot, but the day was warm enough to see how the ants came out :)) And same time I have small snow here.
Same here! We had a week of winter and skipped Spring as hot and humid is what we have been seeing. Even the pool is already warming up!
