You know what this means, don't you? It means I have to figure out what early seedlings I have to sow, pretty quick.

Here at 43.10618° N I haven't seen any green but the tom turkeys are suddenly strutting their stuff to some decidedly uninterested ladies.

Here in SE GA we had our first signs a month ago. Very early spring this year. Will be potting up tomatoes this week into their final homes. Temps approaching 90.

Lil cabbages (Autumn Joy Sedum to you's sticklers) forming, Daylily-n-Iris spears sharpening, Lilac, Meteor Cherry, and Korean Viburnum budding, and I could finally yank the ice-anchored Darkibor-n-Prizm Kale stalks from the ground.
One more thing.
5-6"/12.7-15.24cms of heavy snow Thursday night thru Friday morning.
IOW, what we call Spring...
