Did I say it or did I say it? Tonight will see the temperature in my area drop from the low 60s where it is now at around 7 PM into the 40s tonight and then continue to drop during the day tomorrow. By this weekend, 20s and 30s during the day and 10s at night will be back. Briefly, but those chilly temps will remind us that this solstice is not over.
March is by no means a safe month. Winter has been known to make its presence known up to the last official day of its seasonal existence and beyond. It's snowed in April and even once or twice in May here. Frost is frequent and has ruined the plans of many an overzealous and impatient gardener even after the date regarded as safe for planting.
So enjoy those spring flowers which have prematurely bloomed. Some of them don't do well once temps are below the freezing point. But take joy in the fact that they're here now and there will be others to take their place soon.
Now, I wonder what my heating fuel situation is?
Only 19 days until Spring.
