Spring is coming

[Jarodaka]

Far from being an arbitrary indicator of the changing seasons, March 20 (March 21 in some years) is significant for astronomical reasons. On March 20, 2005, at precisely 7:34 a.m. EST (12:33 Universal Time), the Sun will cross directly over the Earth's equator. This moment is known as the vernal equinox in the Northern Hemisphere. For the Southern Hemisphere, this is the moment of the autumnal equinox.

Nifty.

Few Snow Showers

High 39°F

Low 19°F

Precip. 30 %

Ugh.

I think I'll keep myself toasty warm with an adult beverage. Since it's a Sunday this year it makes partying on the last day of winter quite convenient.

[Nienna]

Yeah.. I'm throughly done with winter.

[TheLordShaper]

I second that. Im so fricking tired of the cold. ugggg..... please let it stop.

[Nienna]

I can handle the cold... I miss my heels... I hate snow!

[TheLordShaper]

What no heels in winter? What kind of "goth" are you anyway?

snow-woman I believe...

and I'm guessing she's the type who doesn't like falling down. It looks very... un-lady-like, even for those who don't care about being lady-like.

One that finds falling on one's ass unglamorous....

Heels? Bah! Stompy, platform boots for winter, of course!

[Brenda Starrr]

Ahhhh, spring. Bring it.

[Lilith]

this time of year is sooooo depressing,, you see it, you know Summer wants to spring into gear..... Ughhhhhh i hate this time of year

[mandelbrotjulia]

Man, where are you people lucky enough to live? It's already getting hot in my town, ugh! It's supposed to be 'April showers bring May flowers', not 'February showers bring March flowers'. It's not that Spring is so bad, it's just that there IS no spring. There are only two seasons here: tons of summer and a little bit of winter, and I hate summer. Bring back the rain!

[soothsayer]

Not fast enough in my book.

[Ginevra]

If it's any consolation, I saw some young squirrels out cavorting today. The little ones don't usually come out until it's very nearly Spring, so hopefully it's not too far off for us.

[Brenda Starrr]

I want to see the crocus and forsythia bushes bloom. Then, I know it's here.

[phee]

I like the apparel of CC better in the spring

[Onyx]

My kids are going to have to hide their Easter eggs in snow instead of grass.

This isn't funny, dammit! Who stole spring this year?

[Jarodaka]

It's going to be 41 tomorrow in Ann Arbor. Downright toasty! I'd wear my shorts if I had any.

[squee]

i'm sick of everything being soggy
