Snow on Crocus to Welcome Spring #WordlessWednesday

Yesterday was the first day of spring where I live.

It's not that common to have crocuses on March 19.

But it is (or was, as our weather has been so unusual) common to have some snow on the ground.

Introducing - first day of spring crocus and snow. 

The picture isn't that great; it was gloomy yesterday morning.  I was working and I asked spouse to take a picture.  Our purple crocus are all the crocus that are left-our white and yellow ones are already gone.  Daffodil greens are up, and a neighbor's forsythia tree is opening its blooms.  Unbelievable.

And now we are back to winter.

    But the snow will be gone soon.

    My daffodils are in full bloom. It’s delightful

    I was brought up short by your first sentence. Somehow I hadn't realized that yesterday was the first day of (calendar) spring as we've had actual spring for a while now. I hope actual spring arrives for you soon!

    It's been a strange weather year. Is this how El Nino effects your area? I know we got the expected surge in rain.

    I love your crocus's in the snow. Here in Oklahoma, every once in a great while, we get snow when the redbuds are in bloom. I love it.

    It got really chilly Monday night (mid 20s) for us. I'm glad we didn't have to worry about snow, even a light amount. What a way to greet the first day of spring, huh? I'm ready for steady warmer temperatures!
