5. I planted some new snowdrops a couple months ago

(Galanthus elwesii, so I see them... ) along with crocuses, mini daffodils, and hyacinths, also planted this past fall.

Didn't get the snowdrops in until November because they were late arriving (had ordered over the summer and found out later the bulbs were coming from overseas and wouldn't ship until November). Am not expecting them to pop up this early, even with the thaw here in Philly, but I guess I should keep an eye out for those spring bulbs and my new dicentra, that is normally an early bloomer.

The thaw is supposed to be over next week though! I don't want anything suddenly waking up this early because we still have to get through the rest of this month and February.
