The whole eastern part of the country has been unusually mild this winter, in contrast to the last two winters which were even colder and snowier than usual.

I like a good cold winter to kill as many bug larvae and eggs as possible.

Post by: Libertas on January 11, 2012, 06:39:03 AM: I hit 54 yesterday...I hope trees don't bud prematurely!

Today it cools to 35 and 16 tomorrow with snow showers both days, floating between 13 and 37 on the extended forecast so still pretty mild.

I got a feeling we'll get socked yet...or have an early spring and one of those summers that isn't!
