Default 3/6 and snowing

Just like it says, its early march here and snowing today. This has got to be the last remnants of old man winter hanging around. I say after this, its time to wake up the toys and get them ready to drive no later than st pat's day here locally. Wishfull thinking???

3.5 inches here in west central Indiana. Heading down to French Lick tomorrow for some R&R.
Suppose to be near 60degrees there on Friday. March in Indiana. Go figure!

Snow in early March.....that damn climate change! Here in southern Arizona we had blizzards and snow on the ground a couple weekends ago (followed by clear skies and temps in the 70s). I love the rain and even the snow but why does it always rain on my track weekends?

We got a blast of cold weather here earlier this week, but it is going to be an awesome weekend and I'm hosting club meeting.

Light dusting here early last night.

Supposed to be in the middle 60s by this weekend.

I get to drive the Vette about 362-364 days a year.

Sunny and 71F here. Of course at the end of next month it will be over 100F and in July/August be 110F. That's what AC is for though.

Who says it never rains in Southern California? My daughter is coming for a visit from New York and We're expecting rain and drizzle for the next 4 days. No reason to wash "the Hobbit" this week either.

You know the old saying, If March comes in like a lion, it goes out like a lamb. That is what we can hope for. It is going into the 40's here in west central Florida (Tamp Bay area)tonight. Of course it will be in the mid 70's on Friday.

Nor easter coming in tonight through Fri. As long as I can get to Logan and flights aren't delayed, we will be on our way to Antigua in the Caribbean at 5:30 am Saturday for 10 days. I will have a rum punch for all of you if you promise to have the roads clear here In New England when I get back. Oh hell even if you don't....

My drop dead date is 5/9 as years ago I remember scrambling to get the plows ready again in the middle of the night for what turned out to be more than a foot of snow in Mass!
But late March/early April driving is hoped for.
