Might get some snow here too next week, but it will melt quickly.
Around here you don't plant flowers or seed a new lawn for a few weeks. It can be too wet and cold. The grass seed will rot before it germinates.
The brief warm, dry spell last week has people out here watering their grass, which shouldn't be necessary as the grass is just starting to green. Terrible waste of treated water.
Going to have to do battle with grubs in the lawn this year. Found them late last fall in a patch of lawn. My neighbor got them bad too. Digging/pulling up the sod and removing the grubs just under what is left of the roots of the turf. You hold the little !#&*!## in your hand and they uncurl as they warm up, and start to crawl away. Tickle the hand with those 4 little feet. Thought maybe I'd keep a few as pets, but found that city would require a license for each one, which would cost a bit for the dozens I had collected. The vet won't spay/neuter them (can't tell the boy ones from the girl ones) which would make the licensing free, so I just diposed of them with extreme prejudice. Birds wouldn't eat them.
