March is the season for silly weather

It’s March, y’all. Where I live this means that almost every item of my wardrobe is on call for potential use, from short-sleeve shirts to merino wool base layers. This week, which is spring break for my university, features some higher temperatures than we’ve seen since early fall, but also some low lows and threat of snowflakes.

The weekly forecast for my town-- all over the place, as March tends to be.
The upcoming forecast for my town– all over the place, as March tends to be.

But this is no news to anyone who’s lived through a March, especially in northern climes. We have to be willing and able to swing wide in our clothing selections, to be nimble in our accessory and footwear choices.

I wrote about this a bunch of years ago when we had a record high temperature in February (73F/23 C) and then a big freeze. You can read about it below, and hopefully just have to experience the March weather shifts vicariously, rather than in person. Enjoy…
