After the warm weather we had last week....I feel like I'm in a deep freeze. It was beautiful, mid to high 70's and I thought spring was finally here.

Today, it's so cold. Lows this week are suppose to be in the 20's and highs in the 40's to 50's, even a chance of light snow showers.

I want the warmer temps back!!!! :mad:

WINTER WEATHER GO AWAY!!!

It's turned cold here too and it's suppose to stay like this all week. We have an Easter picnic with my husband's family but if it stays this cold I'll be staying home!

It's beautiful here in Charleston....maybe you girls should plan a vacation! :cool: The HOA just opened our swimming pool, and my hubby and I are all about being one of the first to jump in!!!! (He's also excited about surfing...in the ocean, of course, not the pool, haha!)

I did hear there's a cold front coming, though. :(

We are supposed to get flurries today, too! I couldn't believe how cold it was when I woke up! Poor little Marty was shivering so I put a sweater on him first thing and then turned on the heat! When will summer be here for good?!?

Mostly clear. Lows in the upper 30s...except lows in the mid 40s near the coast. North winds 5 to 10 mph.

We are getting SNOW! I think that it's the biggest flakes that I've ever seen. Here's a couple of pictures. I hope that they show how big the flakes are.

Wow Diana! That's amazing! I was hoping for an early spring...but I guess not. :(

Be careful if it gets bad!

We've had snow flurries the last couple of days and it's so cold..in the 30's and low 40's. I just thought this was behind us, but I guess not. I'm not ready for the horrible humid heat either, but I wanted some nice spring temps for awhile. Make them come back!!!

We're suppose to get down in the teens the next few nights. My husband is really worried that it will damage the wheat crop (remember he's a farmer) and going down that low it probably will. We have about 265 acres in wheat. Bummer.

oh my I'm so sorry hon. Now I feel guilty for worrying about my flowers. :( . Is wheat your main or only crop?

Wheat isn't our only crop, but it sure makes it hard financially because you have to pay all of the expenses of putting the crop in and fertilizing it, buying seed, and fuel without having a crop to help pay for those expenses. Farming is soooo dependent on the weather. Hail, a freeze, too little water, too much water, too hot or too cold. Everything affects the crops! God is good to us though and it's been a great way to raise a family.

wow you must have a huge place. I thought with the wheat taking up over 200 acres it might be your only one. I hope the cold doesn't affect your crops & your family.

That's AMAZING!!!


It's not cold enough to snow here, but IT'S COLD!!!! I think my boyfriend was hoping all my whining about the cold weather was over :p (just kidding)

The weather has been soooo nice since February, now this...it better blow through fast and give us back our warm weather!!!!! This weekend its supposed to be cold and rainy here :(

I think that we farm over 1,000 acres right now. I'll have to check with my husband and let you know for sure. My son quit farming and we have his ground too. You can see that 200 acres is a good share of it though. Some people farm a lot more and some a lot less. It depends on where you live and what you farm on how much ground it takes to make a good living.
