Hey Phil, What Happened to 6 Weeks?

The Thermometer Don’t Lie!

The very attractive thermometer (Vermont Window Thermometer ) outside my window is telling me it is 34 degrees F (1 degree C) .  lt’s the middle of March and you my predictive rodent, did indeed not see your shadow so spring was to be on its way.  It now has been 6 weeks since your big pronouncement and still, no spring.  Worse, we got 3 inches of snow last night to go with the less than acceptable temperatures.  What gives?

Sure you are going to tell me, well the first day of Spring is not until March 20th (today is the 16th). Secondly you are telling me that you in trying to predict the weather, an inexact science to say the least and third your forecasting instruments are rather primitive and that finally and fourth you just woke up and was forceably dragged out of your warm cozy bed and forced to make a decision on the spot.

Okay, Fine — You panicked under the pressure and took a SWAG.  You blew it, buddy, we are still stuck under this blanket of winter snow, cold weather, harsh wind, basically its still WINTER.  

I am going to send you a wireless, digital, weather station that will allow to look at all the  conditions that are occurring, in order to allow you to make a much more informed decision in your prognosticating every year.
