Here in Colorado we are having a late spring storm in the form of wet heavy snow. The mountains are getting blasted, and in Boulder the flakes were as big as golf balls. We have had some rain for the past few days, now this on top of it all.
Coming home was slow with the slush on the roads, and crossing South Boulder Creek and the Saint Vrain Creek, each were flowing very high already. This could be some bad news for us again because of the already plentiful snow pack, this snow will melt fast surely to bring the rivers and creeks over the banks in some areas. It's not June yet, this shouldn't be happening.
Yeah, runoff will be interesting this year.

Here in Dallas the lakes are getting a little low, the ground is dry, a slight drought has begun, my tomatoes are ripening, as are my strawberries and we're hoping to get a little rain tonight and tomorrow to wet the ground. It was only 89 today.

Some parts of NH had 30+" of snow last Sunday. Thursday it was 95° in some places. I think Spring lasted from Tuesday to Wednesday.
