Don't you LOVE those end of winters, beginnings of Spring, where it gets up in the mid 50's and you think "hmmm, I wonder where Winter went". Its not like I haven't been wishing for sunshine and for the snow to melt, I just didn't think anyone would take me seriously and actually grant such a request as this. We are in Northern Maine for heaven's sake. Land of 200" of SNOW....How is this possible that on March 18th, I can look out the window and see grass where the snow was just a few short days ago. People keep telling me this is "highly unusual" I think I Like the term now. "highly unusual" that means, This is so incredible cool, it rarely happens and don't hold your breath, we have no idea how long it might last. Could there be a negative "highly unusual"? Of course...that might look like -60 degrees, 300 inches of snow...kids home with so many snow days they have to go to school until the end of July to make it all up.....
No THANK YOU...I will take my "highly unusual" and enjoy it.
We are supposed to get more snow the end of the month...But unless it dumps 5 feet, I think I can handle it.
It has been so nice to enjoy the sunshine and the outdoors. My dogs are even going crazy, they are leaping around, barking with excitement and genuinely just pleased about not having to go outside in negative temps to do their business.
I feel like a game of Monopoly where you draw a card and instead of saying "do not pass go, go directly to jail" I got the good karma card of "do not pass snow, Go directly to SPRING!!!

Sounds beautiful! I LOVE the smell of spring in the air ... throw open those windows and enjoy!
I wish it would go directly to spring here! You know how it goes. We get a couple nice days, but the weather says "Oh no, it's not time yet." and then it snows! Grrrr! Normally I love winter, but we have major cabin fever happening here. :)
Yay! I'm happy for Spring too, but it's kind of puttering around and doing it's usual routine in Utah. I'm grateful for your sake that you are having an abnormal weather pattern. I hope it holds!
