March Madness

For those of you into sports, you realize that March Madness is the NCAA big basketball tournament. This year, Buffalo hosts some of the first rounds of the game, so downtown Buffalo is a hopping place this weekend.

For others, like me, who don't follow sports too much, March Madness was our weather this week. While the photo below was taken late last year, it does show what my week looked like:

Add to it, this morning when I woke up, the world looked like the first photograph. We had no snow earlier this week, snow on Thursday which remained through Friday then no snow Saturday morning. Yes, welcome to Western New York in March - it's mad out there.

I think most of us in the Mid-Atlantic are ready for winter to end. It's been entirely too long, but we're in the midst of another cold-snap. The only encouraging thing about all of this: it's March which means April and May approach. Eventually, we'll keep the snow away ... eventually.

One can only hope.
