It's March 25th, 5 days past the vernal equinox, and it's snowing. I know we are ready for spring, but here in Maryland we have snow. Snow as late as April in the mid-atlantic states is not all that unusual. I am just as ready for warmth and flowers as the next person, but we do not have warmth, we have snow.
