We ended up with three and a half inches on Wednesday. Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday were all below freezing. Today (Saturday) and the next two days are also forecast to be below freezing. It is rare to have high temperatures below freezing after the middle of March, and it is unprecedented (in my time here) to have SIX consecutive days below freezing at the end of March. It snowed on Tuesday (no accumulation), Wednesday (three and a half inches), and Friday (one centimeter). I'm amazed that the sun hasn't melted the snow yet. Even though the high temperatures have been in the 20s, the sun is very powerful this time of year...
