x-posting my blunder:

March is just a slightly less aggro February here. Having to wait until late April/early May to experience spring for a split second before summer sets in is one of the things I hate the most about living in Quebec.

We’ll also be going from 5 to -17°C within less than 24h. How exciting.

february will not be a good month until rent ceases to exist

We should poll the cruelest month.

The cruelest month is December. Also spring is the least sucky of all seasons. .

Growing up in the Northeast, spring was my least favorite season. I remember it as a slurry of dirty snow, muddy boots, damp mittens and dead yellow grass poking through during thaws. I never understood the appeal of the season til I moved to East Tennessee, where it really does that Bambi thing where everything suddenly flowers in mid-to-late March, we get highs from 65 to 75, and it is just totally gorgeous (if hard on the sinuses).

take it to the Hell Yes It's September thread, Spring-haters

Spring is great, if you can get it.

it's the best weekend in Texas

best thing about Spring here: wildflowers, miles and miles of wildflowers

tipsy otm i think though i've never been to east tennessee in the spring

mellon collie and the infinite bradness (BradNelson), Monday, 1 March 2021 17:19 (three years ago) link

It’s fucking HEAVENLY in TN in the spring — dreamy even when it’s “cold”

weird woman in a bar (La Lechera), Monday, 1 March 2021 20:01 (three years ago) link

I woke up, read all your posts about beautiful spring weather, and was consumed with envy because it's been cold and rainy and gray here and I didn't expect it to change for another few weeks. Went out to walk the dog, and it turns out to be the most beautiful sunny spring day, just perfect.

I don't have to work today except for class prep, so I'm going to go for a long walk in the sun and listen to a Springsteen concert from 1977.

Dogshit, surely. The melt revealing the hundreds and hundreds of shits people thought the snow excused them from picking up. Now all semi liquified.

It's still freezing here. Ugh.

Supposed to be 60 in a few days! Part of the thrill of March is the variation in temps bc it makes the good days feel extra extra extra good

weird woman in a bar (La Lechera), Friday, 5 March 2021 14:54 (three years ago) link

It's true – the current forecast says we'll be hitting 7°C on Tuesday and 11°C on Wednesday, which feels like a small miracle right now. Too bad we'll still be stuck at sub zero temperatures this weekend, as I'm supposed to go for a physically distanced walk with some friends.

windows are open and i can hear the BQE in the distance

eleven months pass...

And just like that boom
It’s MARCH!!!

Piggy Lepton (La Lechera), Tuesday, 1 March 2022 15:18 (two years ago) link

It’s like 45 degrees and I’m loving it

Piggy Lepton (La Lechera), Tuesday, 1 March 2022 15:18 (two years ago) link

My first day back in the office! (RIP)

paused at the intersection of an east-west road and soaked up thirty seconds of sun in the brisk morning air before plunging into the valley of tall campus buildings on my way to work. hello march!

Jaime Pressly and America (f. hazel), Tuesday, 1 March 2022 15:58 (two years ago) link

that sounds lovely! i took off my hat outside and only wore one pair of stretchy knit gloves. totally sublime to feel the air on my skin again. i actually felt the warmth of the sun yesterday and saw some lil crocuses peeking through the ground on campus today.

Piggy Lepton (La Lechera), Tuesday, 1 March 2022 16:57 (two years ago) link

Lol I somehow misread that as lil cockroaches

March is not playing: high of 82 today

Brad C., Thursday, 3 March 2022 17:36 (two years ago) link

Supposed to hit the mid-60s on Saturday, then a inch or two of snow on Monday. Taking advantage of fake Spring in the meantime though.

Classic March

Upper eighties today.

Christine Green Leafy Dragon Indigo, Friday, 4 March 2022 23:04 (two years ago) link

felt great doing shirtless runs today and yesterday, sun on skin is such a wonderful feeling after winter

Nedlene Grendel as Basenji Holmo (map), Friday, 4 March 2022 23:06 (two years ago) link

74°F today; snow likely on wednesday morning

march

mookieproof, Monday, 7 March 2022 20:53 (two years ago) link

literally below 40 the rest of this week now. first rollercoaster plunge of spring. i hope we have like 5 instead of 7 before the lilacs bloom, when spring is officially moving into summer afaic.

Nedlene Grendel as Basenji Holmo (map), Monday, 7 March 2022 20:55 (two years ago) link

Yeah it snowed today. I don’t care though because the trajectory is POSITIVE and UPWARD compared to the fluctuations of, say, November when things go from bad to worst for the following 4 months.

Piggy Lepton (La Lechera), Monday, 7 March 2022 22:50 (two years ago) link

here comes the front; gonna drop 25° in eight hours

¡¡¡¡LFG IT IS MARCH!!!!!!!

Piggy Lepton (La Lechera), Wednesday, 1 March 2023 16:42 (one year ago) link

just walked thru quite an angry little flurry of rain and didn't care because it's March

satori enabler (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 1 March 2023 16:47 (one year ago) link

It may suck today or even tomorrow and the next day but overall it’s getting better. That’s inevitable and I’m here for it!!

Piggy Lepton (La Lechera), Wednesday, 1 March 2023 16:51 (one year ago) link

The excitement of March is dampened a little by the prospects of a snowstorm getting prepared to dump up to a foot of snow on us tomorrow. :/

Also the part of the forecast that pointed out additional systems on the way that may likely mean March alone exceeds our snow totals for all of the rest of winter.

Maxmillion D. Boosted (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Thursday, 2 March 2023 21:15 (one year ago) link

Fret if you must — I will deal with snow when it happens but the trajectory is inevitable. It will gradually get better and no snow dumps can stop it.

Piggy Lepton (La Lechera), Thursday, 2 March 2023 21:20 (one year ago) link

Not fretting, I'll believe it when I see (and shovel) it, just admitting that it dampened my excitement somewhat.

Maxmillion D. Boosted (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Thursday, 2 March 2023 21:22 (one year ago) link

I’m in Washington where we have had two-tenths of an inch this winter, forward your snow to us!

Alicia Silver Stone (Boring, Maryland), Thursday, 2 March 2023 22:16 (one year ago) link

Oh hi March!

eleven months pass...

March is a weird word for a month.

Jeff, Friday, 1 March 2024 21:08 (seven months ago) link

Only marginally less odd that it comes from the name of the Roman god of war! Winter's over lads, get back to it
