SPRING BREAK Starts Cool!!

Chilly, dry, still, boreal air kicks off spring break with a dip into the low 30's but warms quickly with the steepening sun angle and that bone dry air. No hint of clouds and a breeze make it feel just like it should for April here in central Va.  The crazy warmth of March, with its "month ahead of schedule" blooming has spoiled us into thinking of summer way tooooo soon. April is not called the cruelest month without reason; the fickle swings in April's air, as the summer air masses battle back the chill of winter's storms.
Here in the middle of the middle latitudes we are on that battle front during April and the month will always feature some reminders in the extremes of weather.
But, it is lovely with all the young life busting forth, verdant with sparkles of color. Get out and enjoy!!!!
