As a follow-up to the blog post, Weathering Winter, here’s the crop of spring weathergrams that were hung between the spring equinox and summer solstice (March to June) and their brief stories.

“This one survived!”

Update November 2021. Claudia also sent a follow-up photo taken mid-November.

William and Sarah Yee kept a watchful eye on both weathergrams in their yard in Oakville, Ontario, Canada.

“Still hanging in there, even after all our construction, and the high winds yesterday. One day at a time. Where there’s life, there’s hope,” Libby wrote. She agrees with her sister, Norma, who wrote, “…it fills you with hope and…is a lesson in resilience. It’s a reflection of what we can, and have, endured.”
Libby Amy, Kitchener, Ontario, Canada

“Mine shrivelled and curled.”
Elaine Young, Thornhill, Ontario, Canada

“This weathergram enjoyed a sheltered spot near the back deck. Sometimes, a little protection from the elements goes a long way. Sunlight permeates a worn patch in the paper.”
Lily Yee and Bob Sloan, Toronto, Ontario, Canada

The weathergram project has been an experiment in stamina and resilience. Who can predict what we’ll learn when we put ourselves out there…to try.

If you wish to share your story, please be in touch. I’d love to hear from you!
