MARCH MADNESS...

 

Early March Rainbow (click to enlarge)

...it's not only for basketball.  March, even early April, is normally pretty volatile here, and you just know with our crazy record warmth recently that it has to come to an end...and it will do just that.

I suppose the nice caveat is this late in the new year, with the higher sun angle on our generally NE exposure in ACA, any cold doesn't stay around as long.  

Our party begins overnight tonight, after the warmest day yet, when a strong cold front blows in with pockets of heavy rain, possibly strong thunderstorms.  Too, the temperatures fall Thursday with...yes...the possibility of brief snow showers in the morning.  MAYbe a light coating, but roads will have soaked in a great deal of warmth so no travel issues are expected.  Highs start rebounding Friday through the weekend, before a much colder airmass hits early next week.  Like lows in the upper teens and highs in the 30s to near 40 Tuesday.  Not a good weekend to be planting new things, FYI.
