Nearly all melted now. What a fantastic spring time this was for us snow starved east coasters!

JUST PIPING IN to say what a beautiful bank holiday. Bit cold but beautiful. 

Just read a snippet on one of the news pages about a return to cold (“arctic blast”) during the Easter period. 

Im loving this weather and am looking forward to spring but I missed out on the last two beasties (?) ... first one - one day of snow all morning but my granda died that day so was last thing on my mind) - melted that night. 

One last wee period of snow up in Mallusk would be nice - then I can move on to spring lol. Though if it doesn’t happen I won’t be too disappointed - but no rain please - just nice weather like today ?

They really are die hards in mod thread last thing i want Easter is snow maybe I'm becoming a warmy instead??

[mountain shadow]

I've had enough of the cold too Boofer.  

Can't wait for the first morning when I can walk to work without a jacket.

[Rocheydub]

I like weather extremes, so not pushed either way, a bit of warmth would be a welcome change though!!!

[Rocheydub]

So looking less likely that we will go uber cold Easter weekend. Just chilly and wet with some wintery stuff, especially on higher ground... A bit away from warmth of spring!

[mountain shadow]

Another widespread frost this morning and zero sign of any Spring warmth with winds from the North or North East for the foreseable.

Awe it can't come quick enough! Lol

[Rocheydub]

Signs from day 7/8 onwards that a warm up is on the cards. My heating boiler finally packed in after being patched up dozens of times, so need a warm up very soon. House feels damp and cold!
