Winter farewell.. too soon to tell?

 

?  ?  ?  ?

At least a couple of media sources are saying that the U.S. could experience a mid-March cold snap due to projected activity of the Polar-Vortex.

Hope it isn't so. We reached out to a national meteorologist for further word about this.  His cautious "we'll see" response referenced there's not a lot of cold on the forecast map for the next 10 to 14 days "but that could change."

AccuWeather (3/4/25) is forecasting mostly 50's and 60's daytime temperatures throughout the remainder of March.
