Just when you thought ...

I saw an announcement that the time will change tonight (March 12).
The time will "Spring Forward" by an hour, to compensate for the "Fall Back" experienced last Autumn/Fall.
When you hear that the time will change you naturally think that spring is near.

It seems Mother Nature has other ideas though.
I'm posting some pictures from our March 11 snowfall.
The temperature dropped a degree or two below freezing overnight and the rain that had been falling for the last day or two turned to heavy, wet snow.
It was not a massive snowfall (about 2 inches, or 5 cm), but it certainly served to remind us that spring and the warmer weather do not automatically arrive when the calendar says so.
