Dangerous fire conditions today,with extremely dry air,lack of moisture makes for very dry ground conditions and add gusty winds,and we have dangerous fire conditions. March has definitely been a month of changes,with just about all four seasons represented.This morning was definitely mid winter.Windchills in single and low teens.Last week we were enjoying early summer weather.Keeping all my various weather clothes handy,don't think I'll be using my shorts any time in the near future.

Oh what a busy day,but they do allow me to have a lunch break. Was just outside and sun is warm,but still windy and makes it feel like a winter day out there,those days of 70's and 80's seem a distant memory.A good part of the country is warm,but northeast and west coast are cool.As long as that ridge hangs tough in the center of the country,our weather will continue to come down out of Canada.Next damp weather is Wednesday night and Thursday.

Hey NEw- There talking SNOW for us in Maine, not much at the coast. The ski slopes were still making snow this past few days. Ron Member Since: January 1, 2008 Posts: 0 Comments: 333
