Today was a really nice day here, too. They are trying to scare us again, for the third time, about a potentially significant snowfall on Tuesday. I'm actually thinking it could happen this time because I'm getting my snow tires removed tomorrow, lol.

Lol! One year my dad removed the snow tires in April, we drove 2 1/2 hours for Easter at the cousins', and a huge unforecasted blizzard hit. The drive home was 9 hours.
I felt freezing last night and there was a hailstorm too. I was shivering under a blanket on the sofa but I refused to put my heating back on. It's meant to be warmer this week.

It can be either the mistral or tramontane. The former is a north, north westerly wind and occurs on dry sunny days. Van Gogh lived in Arles which is quite near to where I live. The countryside is also very similar to my area.

Same here. I woke up at 4am with a runny nose, sore throat and earache because I refused to turn the heat up. It was only 4 degrees last night so yeah that wasn't one of my smartest moves.
Just have to make it one more day of cold weather. I think we're in the clear after that! I cannot wait to put away all my gloves, scarves, shovels, snow brushes, leg warmers, winter coat, etc. Every time I think we're done , it just comes right back!

Fabulous, vibrant colours.

When the mistral blows it does make the colours more vibrant. I always have to wear sunglasses all year around.

Hope it doesn't develop into a full blown illness and that you feel better soon. I think you are right...it should definitely be looking up from here on out. Sunny, brighter days ahead.Although, the ten day forecast here will be milder but rainy. Cue me starting to whine about humidity and frizzy hair...

It is cold this morning after a few really warm days. I wish the weather would make up its mind! And the wind is blowing; I hate wind.

Thank you. I made a bunch of veggie noodle soup and a cup of tea then went back to bed for a couple of hours. I woke up and the cold was gone. Weird! In a good way of course.
I am so dreading the humidity!
The wind is the worst! Especially when it's cold out.
