April Fool's Day - one day late!

After a beautiful Saturday and a very nice Easter Sunday, I awoke to a world covered in white. Yes, Virginia, it is once again snowing in New Jersey. There'a about 2-3 inches down already, as a rough guesstimate without any actual measuring.

The drive into work was a hoot as nothing was plowed or cleared. I would hazard a guess that all the normal road crews were off to enjoy the Easter/Passover weekend.  It was a white knuckle ride, driving in preceding car's wheel ruts on the highways; and then getting bombarded with splattering snow thrown up by passing tractor/trailers.

I have a feeling that this is going to be one of those years where Winter hangs on, kicking and screaming until the bitter end. Then, a week later we'll start getting temperatures in the 80s and 90s, with no Spring to speak of.

Whatever, I wish the seasons would change, already, so that I could start enjoying some lunch time QRP at work again.

  1. Still the same here. But winter is losing ground now, with temperatures staying above 5 Celsius, even when the wind goes easterly, which it is repeating every couple of weeks. The SSW event is taking a long time to lose its effects at ground level.
