It was about 45°F and sunny here in Alaska, so breakup is underway. I can put away my winter clothes now, and wear lighter clothes.
The snow accumulated little by little in the previous weeks, but it added up, so hopefully it will help dampen the ground from last years drought.

Bonn is sunbathing - nice bright and sunny but still cold with 6 degrees and real feel of 2 degrees because of the cold winds.
On the other side, Croatia is covered in a white blanket! Instead welcoming spring, winter arrived to almost all parts of Croatia.
Here are some pictures:

Što je ovo? Pa gdje je proljeće? Hrvatska skoro sva u bijelom...
Snijeg je u ponedjeljak poslijepodne padao u Zagrebu i okolici, Slavoniji, a bilo ga je čak i u Dubrovniku. Padao je i tijekom noći, a najavljuju ga i danas. Najviše pada u Slavoniji

Snow today in mountaineous areas and in valleys of Southern France. In Bedarieux, only 300 m (1000 ft) elevation, there's already more than 5 cm (2 in) of snow:
Snow in the South valleys during winter is unusual. During spring, it is very unusual.

Its spring here in the Netherlands, and currently now in the morning -1
This is normal for march in Netherlands.
Sun is shining, clear blue sky.
Birds everywhere, and singing.
The last 2 summers were realy hot here.
We often have a heat wave, but then it lasts at least a week.
The last 2 years we have had heat waves of months.
Last summer 4 months above 30 degrees.
Winters are getting warmer here.
But that has been going on for a long time.
When I was a kid, it was normal for it to freeze 20 degrees.
Now you can clap your hands, if it becomes -5.
I have also been looking at the plants for years, how much they deviate from their normal flowering period.
They also haven't bloomed for years, when they should bloom.
This year, the Cytisus was blooming along the highways in February, while it should be blooming in mid-spring.
Crocuses and daffodils were way too early this year.
The plants react like this because the winters are much too mild.
And this winter we had 1 night that it was freezing, and nothing else.
Therefore,the Cytisus crocuses and daffodils were far too early.
In my view, the planet still seems to be warming up.

East-Europe, Hungary [West of Ukraine]: just this Saturday we had a sunny, warm spring weather, a perfect jogging day! So I did my weekly commando exercise in the sun. Strangely, as I was finishing up by ~14:30 the warmth seemed to go away, winds developed a cold thinge and clouds were gathering.
Today, Winter Cold CHILL and corresponding snow-clouds are gripping our region into their icy grasp again. Pretty high chance it could snow as the winds are freezing!

These images are from this morning 8:30 am, in front of my building . Real winter. Snow about 10-12 cm and temperature of -2C.
And this was not the show that knows sometimes to fall in spring. That snow is soft and watery. This is real winter snow.
According to forecasts, this should end by tomorrow. We will see.

Above the 49th parallel in North America's west, can add for this year in April that my rake has not left the shed due to persistent snow cover; and it's cold each night to the low teens. The fireplace is still a dally function. April Fool’s day offered up a little reminder, snowing most of the day while only semi-melting here today. Now being on lockdown you notice these things ;)
There is extensive bird nesting ground here that in normal (what is that) times the geese, ducks and swans make their way north earlier in March and land in the slowly opening waters. April 3rd and there is not much open water (ice and snow) and yet they have been hanging around waiting
. The hummingbirds are, give or take, 18 days away in flight ETA, and my thoughts turned to them thinking, just hang on, slow down, this will not be easy for you unless the IPCC turns out to be right with their models, which frankly seem a little off. Will have to see.
