Our weather is fickle. Today I remembered a conversation that I had a year or two ago with a mother of young kids. It was around this time of year. She had commented that her kids were cold because she had already packed up their winter clothing. I would have made a comment about it being her first year here in the area - but, from previous conversations, I knew that wasn't the case.
The reason I was reminded of that as I walked out the door this morning was because today was cooler than it has been the last few days. It was also overcast and wet - bringing snow by the end of the day. Someone new to the area might not have guessed that the weather would do that. Someone that's been around for a bit - knows that it happens every year. It starts to warm up and then we have a couple of cool days...and then it switches around again. It's usually pretty safe to put winter gear away by the time Mother's Day comes around. Okay. Maybe all of the gear doesn't need to stay out - but, at least a jacket and some long sleeves. It's a little deceiving...but, we will never have summer weather during all of March. It's just how it goes around here.
