Are March Snows Like April Showers?

The snow is coming down again; this really has been a most bizarre winter. To herald spring, Mother Nature has sent more snow, just so that we don't assume we know more than she does by merely naming seasons.

However, I am guessing that flowers like these are just around the corner--I took this picture in spring, as well, and just looking at it I can smell those flowers and feel that warm sun. Not literally, of course, since I have to go shovel now, but figuratively, the image warms the heart.

And if April showers bring May flowers, then March snows must bring something . . .

Where's that darn global warming when we need it?

Just kidding.

Spring is coming soon!

Whenever the weather is weird, I just assume it IS a product of global warming. :)

And it's been snowing in North West England, too. A weather forecaster has just said that statistically, White Easters are almost as likely as a White Christmas...

That's a good point. Spring just creates the ILLUSION of warm weather. :)
