A Cool Start to March
Karl Spring,

Hello March! We’ve survived January and February, and really, they weren’t so bad. Although, February did bring us 19 consecutive days with WAY below average high temperatures. What bugs me even more, is that we are still 26″ below where we should be for snowfall for the season. While we can still get snow in March and April (and yes,…
