I swear, people who don't live here don't understand how fragile we Northerners are in March. March is so evil. EVIL. And I don't mean in a "cute little puppet fangs" kind of way.
Kristin speaks the truth. Up here, March actually comes in like Cthulu, and pretty much stays that way for the whole month. With the occasional day above 50 as a tease. Of course, those days it usually rains.
Oh, good. Kristin and Frankenbuddha have managed to turn my lighthearted gloom into actual glum. I have no idea how I'm going to get through March and possibly April, especially considering our lack of snow.
I'm fine with March because: Hey, not February, month of pain. I can still stand to go outside and in a few months, ugh.
February is short, and it doesn't pretend to be anything other than what it is - dead of Winter.
March is ostensibly at least partly in Spring, but it almost never acts like it. When it does, it's usually still wet and miserable. I swear the snow in March comes down already grey. Plus, the only end to look forward to is April, which, although warmer, is usually just as sucky with the wet weather.
YES! Frank, I feel so bonded with you right now.
March in NC is heralded by blooming daffodils, trout lillies, and spring beauties.
And then, about every third year, a late snowstorm comes and buries the lot of 'em.
Gee thanks, March.
Actually, it's not all that bad temperature-wise. But the usual March wind is going to feel even worse if it's going to be as damp as they say.
I'm fine with March because it makes me happy that by the end of the month the days will be longer than the nights.
Juliana, your forecast looks almost exactly like ours.
I need to go somewhere warm this month, even if only for a day or two. Maybe I'll go to Florida for a weekend and visit my former mentor.

So, packing Spring clothes for New York this weekend, not a good idea?
Oh, -t. It is not spring here. We think hopefully about spring in May.
