As you know we never get snow here. And then we get slammed. Will have to wait till it thaws before I can tell if there is any major damage.

I was going to say-whats the red ball,cardinal?
then I realized,it's an "orange(?)"
HaHa-Yours will be gone soon,here we have had snow on the ground since early Dec,-4 to 5 days when it melted and got replaced.
This is the time of year when I give up wishing for the snow to go,and I just give in.
Usually it's not to long before it is all gone and I kind
of miss it then-but not for long 😉

Jeez, Todd, that's brutal.
You've NEVER had snow?
Weather sticker says 54 F so it'll be gone quickly.
Bet the Rotties love romping around in it...

If you drink, don't drive. Don't even putt.

Barb most we get is a dusting every ten years or so. I think 1989 was the last time we got something like this.
Yeah, frozen oranges... 😯

Laaz this is really a strange winter if you got snow 😯 . I`m thinking the plants should pull through for you.

That is really nuts!!! How did your queens fair and everything else after all those low 20's in The beginning of January?
I see your washies burned out, does that happen every year or is this a fluke year?
Hope everything holds on for you!

Everything should pull through fine. A lot of burn from the January freeze but... Queens burned badly but they will come back.

A week later and we hit 78 F today. Hope winter is over for good.

Nice!
In a typical year we'd see at least some of that by late Feb./early March, but I'm guessing it'll be April this year. 😥
