Somehow, living above the frost line means fall lasts a bit longer and, yes, spring comes a bit earlier.

WEATHER REPORT MARCH 1, 2011 FROM ABOVE THE FROST LINE
I'm not deluded into thinking Spring has arrived full force, here in the Southern Appalachian Mountains. I am not saying there will be no more cold days nor below freezing nights. But, something has happened here above the frost line. These photos were made today. I see evidence that Forsythia is beginning to bloom. Rose bushes are putting forth new growth. The first daffodils and many crocus are blooming. Yesterday driving to town I saw a huge green willow tree.
