Spring, Summer, Fall & Winter



By now everyone knows I am in awe of Mother Nature as she accomplishes things no one else can!

As an example if you look at the photos above you just get an idea of what she did in 24 hours. Miami had a high of 91 degrees on Friday then at night dropped into the 60s followed by a 46 degree temperature in the morning! Fort Lauderdale followed suit and now a couple of days later---Tuesday---it is Spring with high temperatures of 78 and an annoying rain that is more like a drizzle as you would expect in March!

"Have you ever heard of the saying, "March comes in like a Lion and goes out like a Lamb"?
While the saying most likely started as a reference to astronomy, referencing the position of the constellations Leo (a lion) and Aries (a ram, or lamb) in the night sky -- it quickly evolved into a succinct summation of March's changing weather as the seasons change from winter to spring in the Northern Hemisphere."


Don't know if that applies here and I am curious what awaits as we approach April!!

Early March is usually windy here in Colorado, and I've always thought of that as the lion, and then it mellows out toward the end: the lamb. I wasn't aware of the constellation connection - it makes sense. This year, hasn't been very lion-like so far, although we did have sub-zero overnight lows, which is very unusual for this time of year.
