March showers… bring April flowers?
Don’t be tricked by recent warm weather — despite temperatures nearly reaching the sixties earlier this week, make sure to keep dressing warm and dry as the next few days cool down again. Expect a variety of precipitation this weekend all the way from intermittent snow flurries tonight to warm(ish) showers on Sunday. High winds accompany the onslaught of midterms coming up this and next week, so try your best to keep both feet on the ground and not blown away in the current. Hopefully, after enduring a variety of ups and downs in our weather recently, we’ll be able to enjoy an early spring to save us from more gloomy weather. Fingers crossed!
