Snow and Daffodils

Sometimes in Minnesota, winter doesn't want to end. We hoped to get some gardening done today, but were thwarted (at least a little) by the unexpected May snow.  While of course we are all ready for spring's warmth, I have to admit it is kind of beautiful to see snow on the blooming daffodils.

 

Silly Winter Facts:

• The largest snowflake ever recorded was 15" wide and 8" thick.

• In 1997, 47" of snow fell in one storm in Lake County, MN.

• The record low in Minnesota is -60F, while the record high is +114F.

Forecast for next week:

The sun will come out on Sunday and the forecast calls for 60 and 70 degree temperatures all week.  We can't wait.
