Spring's started here now, all bright green leaves and today was really
warm. Your bare branches look very strange.

You're at the same latitude as me but your climate is much milder than the
Canadian Prairies (as I'm sure you know). The *average* high now is in
the
mid-teens although now (Thurs afternoon) it's 5C. We didn't get the 25 mm
of rain forecast and now its for 15 cm of snow overnight. If we get it it
won't stay long unlike our last storm in April. We need the water as this
area is normally quite dry. Our wettest month still lies ahead in June.

Downgraded to 5 cm of snow . See the picture-hey, it's Calgary!
