So March and I don’t have the best relationship. Some things were said and we’re no longer on speaking terms. But if this forecast keeps up, I can be moved to make a friendly gesture from time to time, perhaps a gingerly head nod while passing.

Temperatures in March are traditionally a roll of a dice but it seems like everything is coming up sixes with forecasters calling for nothing but sunny skies and highs of 8 C this weekend. Things will get slightly cooler to start the week, with forecast highs of 5 C Monday and 3 C Tuesday, but that’s still well above normal for this time of year so we’ll take it.
Maybe March isn’t so bad after all…famous last words.
