Well after last March (2012)
people got spoiled….Yes most of last march was very warm, highs in the
50s to 60s across much of the area, with no snow to speak of.Last March there
was only 2 snow days and that was on the 2nd and 3rd which brought us 2.50” of snow….So far this
March we have had 5 snow days…the 4th/5th
8th 10th 11th…. So far this March we have seen
20” of snow… On the average we see 10.2” of snow in March, so we are well over
that…..What was interesting…Back in 2011 we were also above normal in the
snowfall dept…Coming in at 14” of snow…..Back in 2010 we also had a warm March
were we had temps in the 60s that broke records….Temps this March have been a
tad below normal so far…..
So before all you spring weather lovers get carried away by
saying spring is here, well no its not yet….Look what happen last year after a
very warm March, we got snow in April, and to put even more of a damper on you,
there has been a few years we had seen snow in the first part of May….In fact
just back in 2011 we saw that….So spring lovers, keep it real and keep it in
check! As you all know this time of year is a time for change yes we should see
warm days but we still will see more snow….
Once May gets here, after the first week then you can say
spring is here….The calendar says Spring starts on March 20th
however as we all know, weather does not
run on a time frame….Just like watch boxes…..You can have severe weather
outside the watch box area, as we have seen many times……
