YES.
Sweeping. And raking. Crocus, hyacinth, daffodils, and tulips are starting to POP. Phew. Long Winter, man. Life is alright.

Don't forget Pollen. Enough in my neck of the woods to choke out a woodchipper.

We're not to pollen yet....
We should probably rename "Flowering Wet" to "Pollen Hell"

Being east of the Cascade mountains and Seattle wet figures less in the seasons. I do think of November one to February 15 as the dark and fog time.
Monday morning we awoke to four inches of snow. That put a dent in my expectation of spring. It felt a shock. We do not get lots of snow and April is way late to my memory.
Res Ipsa, what in the world is the Suncadia?

Suncadia refers to this resort:

I think the term refers to periods from a couple of days to up to a week when we get sunshine similar to what you get east of the mountains.
