Boomerang Weather

Tweet

Here we are mid March 2026. We've had a long and hard winter. We have been feeling the effects of that season coming to an end over the past month or so. And yes, it gets cold again too. Many people were worried about wet basements, due to the run off from the spring thaw just yesterday, and today, that is no longer an immediate threat. I worked at our downtown towers today. From my seat on the 21st floor, I should have had a great view of the city. But the windows were facing the way that the wind was blowing into. I saw only white, and lots of it! Yesterday's spring thaw has given way to another push from Old Man Winter. We did receive a few centimeters, just enough that I wished that my husband had dropped me off at work so that I wouldn't have to get the snow brush out to clean the windshield after work, but that wasn't the case. The air was warmish enough that the heavy, wet snow, could be cleared from within the driver's seat-with the windshield wipers. So, that is what I did. And as I look outside, the snow has begun again, and we are expecting 5 cm tonight. Quite the boomerang weather we are experiencing, and on the final day of classes for students before the March break. I hope that it is warmer and clear for them for next week, as many young ones like to play outside and ride their bikes. ~Photo is mine
