I just planted all my annuals last weekend and they will probably all die now!
Sympathies bro......the weather really has gone for a dumper......
As far as the plants....just cover them so they don't get too cold and covered badly with snow and they should survive....

Well, thankfully we didn't get any snow last night! I think places north of me like Moncton and Fredericton got snow but we didn't along the coast. It did go down to +1C last night, but hopefully my plants will survive.

Our forecast is the same Deane. I'd hate to be going camping for the long weekend like so many people do here.

The whole country yoyos back and forth it seems. Last week I really couldn't believe 25-28 degrees for three days and then back to really cold. It's noon here now and 3 degrees with light rain.

Yo-yo weather is right .
It was 15C here the last two days since our Fishing Derby started (caught 5 salmon and 2 Lake Trout our first morning out)
This morning it is 5C (42F) and blowing like stink out , so no fishing today. I just washed my truck in the driveway and almost froze my bollacks off

Hey nice job on the fish Wayne. mmmmmm yummy. That's a shame you can't get out for for today though.

Generally its been a cold but dry spring here until the past number of days where we've had straight rain. I have a steep grade in my back yard and part of my lawn is under 3 inches of water from the non stop barrage of rain runoff. It's 10 degrees here now and raining. What a horrible day for the 1000's of marathoners out running todays Bluenose event.

We're expecting to get up to 17 and sunny by Wednesday so hopefully that's the start to a real spring on the way to summer.
