+Gepard 11,323 Posted March 25, 2013 Normally spring means the first warm days, flowers, the first leaves on the trees. But not this year. Some impressions from spring in Germany 2013. Spring means: icy roads Spring means: snow on trees Spring means: snowy woods Spring means: snowfall Spring means: hungry birds 1 Spring means: hungry blackbird Spring means: seldom guests 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Derk 265 Posted March 25, 2013 Great pics Michael !! Same here, snow in parts of the country, high winds, high chill factor, weather records broken (incredibly too for a highest temperature ever recorded in the beginning of March,,,,) Nature is lagging way behind.

ValAstur 1,294 Posted March 25, 2013 (edited) Yeah... All I can say is, that this "spring" how you call it definetely sucks. I work outside and this cold completely ruins everything. First of all my hands, then my mood. The only thing I could do now with this "spring" is: :minigun: @Gepard From which part of Germany are those pics? Just to be curious. In the Ruhrarea where I live we, fortunately, don't suffer from iced roads and masses of snow. Edited March 25, 2013 by ValAstur Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JediMaster 451 Posted March 26, 2013 Here in FL, it's 50F outside right now with ~15-20mph winds. The high is forecast to be 65F, but lately it's been struggling to get to those highs. Worst part is today at 5PM is my daughter's weekly soccer practice. Sigh... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+Gepard 11,323 Posted March 29, 2013 Nice Photos Kulbit Its called Eastern, but we have more snow than on X-Mas. And the weather forecast says, that we will have winter for the next two weeks. Where is the so called global warming when it is needed?! I have never seen before storks in snow. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Derk 265 Posted March 31, 2013 OK, we made it, Easter 2013, the coldest since 1964......... We went to the zoo today and it's funny to look at lions, tigers, orang oetans, giraffes, elephants and many more tropical animals while it is (lightly) snowing . Our dogs enjoyed it immensely though, and so did the bears, wolves, penguins, ice bears and some more of the beasties from the more moderate climate zones.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
