Gavin Posted April 1, 2014 Posted April 1, 2014 Dandelions in bloom is a good indicator. None here yet. Kc is usually a week behind STL. Leonard is usually picking a week before STL.

ness Posted April 1, 2014 Author Posted April 1, 2014 What's a trout lilley? A small, yellow lily that has green-gray leaves mottled with gray-brown spots similar to a trout. They bloom in early spring. Thanks Wikipedia. John
ness Posted April 1, 2014 Author Posted April 1, 2014 Forecast for the next week has lows around freezing, highs in the low 60s. Last year was later too. I think in '12 we were finding them 3rd week in March. John

jdmidwest Posted April 1, 2014 Posted April 1, 2014 I have seen the flowers, just never knew they had a name. They are around when mushrooms pop. "Life has become immeasurably better since I have been forced to stop taking it seriously." — Hunter S. Thompson
