We were just starting, but I'm sure further south they are blooming by now.
Actually I saw tiny buds on trees today and some small yellow leaves on forsythnia bushes. I think this warm weekend helped them come out. I was in NYC & Long Island this weekend, they're further along down there, but most trees are still bare. Such a contrast from 2012 at the same time, when they were near full leaf out.
Its funny how consistent the last frost date is. It is always around the 10th of May which is really odd for here as cloud levels are not consistent.
Oddly, our last frost date is rather consistent even if our weather is less consistent. I always hope that somehow this spring, we wouldn't get a late frost, since we'll get a week where it appears mild, but it always happens. Usual last frost here is early to mid May.

Yea I don't understand why it is like that because here the weather is so inconsistent.
I wonder what causes it to be like that.
When is your last frost?
People say here it is late April but it is actually more like mid-May. At least here in the countryside.

Your temperature variablity isn't as high as here, but your seasonal changes aren't as drastic, so perhaps the two effects cancel each other out? Last frost is usually in the first two weeks of May:
Data includes years from the early part of the 20th century, which were a bit cooler.
On May 10, the average morning low is 42.5°F with a standard deviation of 7.4°F, so if a normal distribution is correct, 16% of the time the morning will be below 35°F. By the end of May, the morning low is 50°F so a frost becomes unlikely. Early July, 58°F so essentially impossible.
