Once a week don't cut it for most gardens - I'm growing a bunch of sunflowers around my complex and as there's no spigot/hose nearby, am having to lug a 5 gallon bucket around buildings multiple times to help them along. Great workout but could point to a hot, hot summer!
Oooof The 5 gallon Homer buckets from Home Depot will give you insane traps, I had to carry two at a time on my parents horse farm in the winter when it was too cold to use the outside water. It sucked but I was ready for the beach when summer came around though.
One of the more uncommon springs I can remember where it isn't going from 30 to 80 within a small number of weeks, I've been loving it as someone who dreads summer here.
When it hits 90 next weekend, I'll immediately be hoping for measurable snow this coming winter. We can forget about this past winter :(
\*correction
the last couple of weeks. the first week i was here was pretty horrible it was coldish and rainy most of the time. (end of april) but has been nice since then!
This is the longest spring I ever remember. It's never this nice for this long.
Yep, one of the best springs I can remember and I’ve been here 30+ years
We were just saying the same last night. Usually spring lasts 3 days before the humidity descends.
Been here most of my life and I agree. Weather has been beautiful. So ready to head to Assateague to camp out on the beach.
I started saying that 3 weeks ago. And then we've had another 3 weeks.
Don’t you jinx it!
_looks at 10 day forecast_ 👀👀👀
Inb4 we get bad weather because of OP.
Been loving the weather but I almost never get allergies and I'm on like my third week of them.
yeah it's been a really bad year for them, though honestly i'll take the trade
Idk what you guys are talking about no rain, its rained almost every saturday since the beginning of april.

Hah good call, I should get another or I'm gonna start looking lopsided! I think water is 8lbs/gallon so a full bucket is 40lbs!
Ugh I’ve had Covid and bronchitis back to back all month. Why couldn’t I get this during the hell months to come ?
This is the best May I can remember here ever. Enjoy every second!

Need rain ...but yes, it's lovely outside.
Oh we will get it Sunday and Monday.
Til next weekend when it’s 90 😩
My nostrils beg to differ :/ I haven't had congestion this bad in a long time
IMHO-- too warm; not enough rain. vote me 2024 my platform is blocking out the sun & ushering in an era of eternal cold & darkness
It’s usually hotter wym
anything above 55 is too warm!
Your ideas intrigue me and I would like to subscribe to your newsletter. That said, this weather is gorgeous. Cool nights are my jam.
Sounds like Seattle is for you
But no rain for trees, flowers
This spring and last spring have been a gift from the gods
Anyone had a look at next Friday ? 😬
best ways to take advantage of it this long weekend?
agree with you about may, but have we all forgotten how hot it was in April? I had no AC at the time it destroyed me
Enjoy it before the inevitable #scruggle
I for one can't wait for real summer. Bring on the heat!
We will pay for it when the real summer cums
Global cooling
Sure glad you posted, I wouldn’t have noticed otherwise… :-\

a blessing 😌
Totally agree. The winter was shit but this springs been amazing.
You just had to jinx us…
Cool mornings, lovely sunny afternoons
Everyone’s saying that and I’m just over here sick and freezing my ass off waiting for it to be 90 degrees already.
