Its Official Winter is Over

[Thunderfoot]

Found the first Brown Recluse of the season - winter is over....

yay....

 

[Umbran]

Yeah, but then again, for my area weather.com has the following banner up:

"WINTER ALERT: 2-4 in of snow over the next 36 hours"

Now, for this season, that's a pittance, but still.

APRIL FOOLS!

We're supposed to get more snow tonight. Yet again

Well, I hope the Brown Recluse has its 4 pairs of mittens ready...

The Basement Nerd Recluse is more dangerous.....well for the ladies at least.

A most deadly creature, indeed!

No, not April Fools... I wish...

About two weeks ago, it got up to 70F around here, beautiful weather and not a recluse to be found, they knew what was coming up, a huge cold snap.

Recluses can hang out in cold weather for about four days or so, before they either "hibernate" or die. So even with more cold weather on the way, they are active, so springtime weather is right around the corner for real.

I swear, you city folks and your weather radars, really, you should talk to a farmer sometime...

While dealing with the recluse, widows and every venomous snake in North America sans the sea snake and the coral snake sucks eggs, I don't miss THAT about the east coast.
