Snow storm in the middle of April!!!

[vitaly]

It's the end of the world. We are having snow blizzard at the end of April!!!. Everything is flowering and blooming, and than bam!!! A snow storm. It's the most insane thing ever. I was getting ready for summer and everything. So weird to see flowering trees covered in snow. If you are wondering where I am , I am in Tiraspol (Transnistria). Now I am certain that we live on borrowed time now)))





This is what I saw our of my window when I woke yesterday











Snow Covered Buckeyes









Yes, these are flowering buckeyes covered in snow!!!!









So weird. I can't believe it. I guess, we won't have any fruits this years. Kind of sad too.

It's that global warming thing. Yesterday was a high of 81, the record high was 97 that was set in 1925. Tomorrow is only suppose to be a high of 70(don't know what the high is). The hottest summer I can remember was when we hit 100 in the middle of May and it stayed like that all summer. Seems those days are over. Looks like this will be the 3rd cool summer in a row here.

At the risk of sounding like some kind of uneducated bumpkin I have never even heard of Tiraspol or Transnistria.I did do a quick Google search though and it does not seem to be too far fetched for that area to experience some snowfall this time of year once and a while as it is not exactly a tropical part of the world.

Hello; While it is rare in April here in southeast KY & north east TN, It does happen from time to time. It is much more normal for all snow to end in March.

It happened here too Last year we had it a week later which was the latest I've seen personally. I cannot wait to get out of here.

Tiraspol actually has pretty decent climate. It's only an hour away from Odessa. It gets really hot in the summer. I have never heard of Transnistria either, until I moved there)))

Hello; Yes I have seen that a couple of times. Only twice in 69 years so kinda rare.

That pretty much describes our climate here and we have had a bit of snow in April a time or two over the years.

We had snow last week.

Weather's been pretty bipolar here lately...
