I say it every year and multiple times: March. Is. The. Worst. Month.
Except last year. That was awesome.

xxp True as a general rule, but my wife and I moved back to Cleveland from Virginia in March 2007, and April gave us this:

Instead of going to three home opener baseball games, I spent three days clearing 18+ inches of snow from my driveway.

It's going to get better, I just know it. That's the bittersweet taste of March. It's the Fernet of seasons -- only those with a taste for the medicinal will find pleasure in it.

I'm in the mood to watch the Wicker Man again. Less than six weeks until May Day!

I prefer the cold and all, but it's getting a little tedious.
Only another month until spring weather.

Car flipped over on the Cleveland Shoreway in front of our office's building this morning. No other cars involved, def. weather related. Pic is blurry as I took it from the 15th floor with a lol iPhone.

Mookie, you are on probation. March weather is on my last frayed nerve, but this is my spring break. I'm trying to make the most of it.

I hereby banish March into the past with each passing (dragging agonizing) second. Each second that passes is one less second of March and one tiny step closer to April, where the real springtime action will be (probably).

Brackish water! 50-something! That's gonna be us come this weekend, with any luck. I just want to not wear a hat every time I leave the building.
― and that sounds like a gong-concert (La Lechera), Thursday, 28 March 2013 02:16 (eleven years ago) link
I was just thinking today it's almost Easter and I am still wearing my wool hats. I will probably be wearing them until May.

have had the weirdest most lingering cold all week. was out of work 2 days, spent last night sweating like a bastard. fuk u march.

is it time for an april thread? because we are getting successive waves of awesome thunderstorms down here, and I am over the moon about it.
― the girl from spirea x (f. hazel), Wednesday, 3 April 2013 05:29 (eleven years ago) link
it is 35 and "blustery" here, so maybe not quite yet
― mookieproof, Wednesday, 3 April 2013 06:03 (eleven years ago) link
i prefer my weather to bluster tbh
― mookieproof, Wednesday, 3 April 2013 06:04 (eleven years ago) link
I think this thread will suffice because it will still document the painful slowness of the onset of spring.
I'm jumping for joy over here b/c it's supposed to be 50-60 for the next four days. Four days!!! No gloves! A jacket!!
― and that sounds like a gong-concert (La Lechera), Wednesday, 3 April 2013 12:11 (eleven years ago) link
I can go with jacket. Still prob medium coat weather for me. It takes a month or so to shake of the residual winter bone chill.
― Jeff, Wednesday, 3 April 2013 12:26 (eleven years ago) link
Yeah I'll still be wearing a hat. Also I guess high temp today is 42, which is nice but not what I thought. I want it to be warm enough to smell the mud.
― and that sounds like a gong-concert (La Lechera), Wednesday, 3 April 2013 12:38 (eleven years ago) link
I will probably keep wearing my hat until it is 70.
I am getting tired of wearing boots.
― tokyo rosemary, Wednesday, 3 April 2013 14:06 (eleven years ago) link
I went for a walk on Monday, it was almost warm enough.
