Mar. 29, 2007 Central Ohio Weather
Will March weather go out like a lamb in Central Ohio?
In "Cold Comfort At winter?s end, we ask: How did we ever weather it? Columbus Dispatch journalist Joel Blundo said March 1st came in like a wet blanket? Rainy and cold....Winter as in:
" By the way, we?re talking about psychological winter, which lasts from the first trace of snow in the fall to the middle rounds of the NCAA basketball tournament. "
It's been spring by the clock for nine or ten days now... and the groundhog (Buckeye Chuck) promised us an early spring. Don't remember the winter of 2006 - 2007 Blundo has the highs and lows of the season with such memorable events as:
" Nov. 18: OSU beats Michigan on a beautiful 50-degree day. All is right with the world. "
" Jan. 9: Cold, dreary day after BCS game. Weather isn?t so great, either. "
We sometimes tell time by sporting events in Central Ohio. What will be said about weather in Central Ohio on March 31, 2007 ... NCAA semi -finals... and the next day... April 1.... Hopefully the Buckeyes will be like lions not lambs in Atlanta.
Inman Blog's (a national real estate blog ... weather is local... real estate used to be) Matt Carter poked fun at "David Lereah, chief NAR meteorologist" recently ....it is economist David Learah homes aren't selling so all we are talking about is the weather.....
The Columbus Dispatch article about winter ended "Time to shut off winter anxieties ? and begin fretting about tornadoes, bugs and ultraviolet ?"
Darn... I blogged about tornadoes Monday.
