Don't you just love Spring?

It's Springtime again and it's my favorite time of the year (tied with Autumn, which I also love, for different reasons). Here in Arizona spring is announced by the smell of citrus blossoms everywhere you go. It's hard to be in a bad mood when you walk outside and your nose fills with such a sweet smell. Speing flowers are coming back like Hibiscus and Tulips. And the girls are wearing warm weather clothes, which can't be bad. So I'll enjoy it until it's 110 F (or hotter) everyday for three months.

Is it spring where you are?
 
I wouldn't really consider it Spring where I'm at. The only four seasons we have here, are Summer, Summer, Summer and Rain. but it is nice for the first summer season to come around. Gorgeous mornings at 70 degrees and clear skies but by afternoon 90 degrees a lot of humidity and clear skies.
 
hey Mile, what part of Arizona are you in? My brother lives neat Flagstaff and I remember Spring time there a few years back was gorgeous. That was until it dropped a foot or two of snow on us. :lol:
 
I love spring time.The sun is shining, the grass is growing, the bees are buzzing, birds are coming back from the south.

And love is in the air.

Phoenix.
 
We ain't got spring up here. I mean, the dates would indicate we're in it, but there's still some snow out there, and it's still cold. 23*F this morning...

Oh come one its not that bad! Its gorgeous outside today! I love spring, light green leafs on the oak trees, the smell of the Orange blossoms, and the knowledge that the lake activities are just around the corner! I can't wait to get back out on the waverunners, and do some knee boarding!
 
Things are starting to bud here, and we've had some fine days, but it's a little far North for full-on Springtime here.
 
Ah, spring!

Where the days get longer, and the shorts get shorter! Canadian money is rarely found in your change (the sign that winter is coming). It's not yet humid outside, Orion is stating to disappear in the early evening. The mosquitoes are planning their summertime deployment and assault. Flowers and trees are in bloom, and inevitably, they shall create a nusaince on all South Floridian's front walks. The coming sunset blinds many a driver's westward travels on our simple grid-layout of roadways here.

Don't get me wrong, not being pessimistic, it's just that Spring started here about 6-8 weeks ago. :)

:irked: Just got a current report,... 34 ball freezin degree's,.... with rain :banghead:
 
Yea very nice spring day.

-3 degrees celcius all day and it snowed like 10cm in few hours...
Glad we still had winter tyres on both of our cars.

And BTW. I have no idea how much those degrees you have said here are in celcius :confused:.
 
It was extremely cold for me a couple days ago here in Miami. Strange, but it's finally passed. Mad pool time. :)

When I lived in spain, it was like that. But more like Sunny 350 days of the year, Rainy/Cloudy 15 days of the year.

That would be the weather I would love to live in. 350 days of sun. It sounds like a desert area. I would move out to where my brother lives in Arizona, but being land-locked is the only thing I don't like. Everyplace needs a beach. :) - The best part about spring though is beaches starting to fill up with people. :)
 
In Austin earlier this morning, the weather was looking pretty bad. Lots of clouds and wind. But in the afternoon, the wind stopped and the sun came out and it was a very nice day.

Oh my! That's like, death weather for us...

I love spring, although it does no good for my allergies (been needing my inhaler a lot more in the past week). But still, spring is so nice... not too hot, plants budding everywhere, the animals start to come out again... vedy nice. Interestingly enough, it was starting to truly become spring earlier this week (Monday and Tuesday were the first days that I've worn shorts to school this year), but starting yesterday (Wednesday) it suddenly got very cold, and I'm sitting here right now in sweats (no heating in the house). Of course, "cold" being a relative term... PR might find this to be summer weather, no? :lol:
 
Shorts here? Not unless you want to get a bad cold! :lol: Heck, it felt so cold this morning, i had my winter coat on! I can't wait for things to heat up a bit. It was nice, relatively warm and sunny last week.
