Since april 8th, it has rained 17 out of 21 days, and we have gotten nearly 6 inches of rain. This brings the total for March/April to 37 out of 56 days of rain and close to 14 inches of rain.

Yea, this has been a pretty shitty April so far in the NE, nothing but cold and rain.

5 day outlook shows 4/5 more days of rain. I can't remember the last time I saw the sun.

depends on where you live

it was snowing up here yesterday, no flowers

I think it's that "here in PA" part. Here in southern AZ the winter rains failed and we're in a nasty drought.

It's been unusually cold here for the last couple weeks, but we've still had flowers despite the sub-freezing temperatures.

Was in Scranton a couple weeks ago and it was nice to be in cool weather and have a little rain...have barely had a drop here in central Texas all year and we've been in the 80's and 90's for a couple months

April showers?

 

[GoofyGoofT]

We have been getting a lot of rain here too.

Then again I am in Catawissa MO

We have had a lot of TORNADOES this year too!

Rain I can handle, we had 8in in one day, it is the high winds and flying debris that will KILL you!
