With all that heat, I can't understand why we still have snow left over from witenr. I mean farmers should be watching their crops growing by now however, reality is that the ground is still frozen, and Ag Alberta I believe yesterday came out and stated that we are at least 2 weeks behind normal' at this time of year .But being an avid gardener, at this time of year, my garden beds are being prepared, and cleaned out of last falls ground cover. Currently ..still covered with snow from witenr .and that is ignoring the 14 cm of snow that fell overnight (which is not uncommon though) .Your NCDC graph shows the correct color heading towards Alberta
