The First Day of Spring?

According to my wall calendar and the people on the radio, today is the first day of spring. You sure could have fooled me!

The temperature was below freezing this morning and I encountered a combination of snow, ice pellets AND freezing rain on my way to work today. Seriously, this is ridiculous!

I’m convinced that MOTHER Nature went on vacation to a warm tropical climate and left FATHER Nature in charge. And he has let the kids run wild while she is away. It’s the most logical explanation I can come up with.
