Snow, cold, and the Vernal Equinox…

20/03/2007 Johnnyboy



Depending on which calendar you consult, the Vernal Equinox is either today or tomorrow. This is when the ends of the poles (imagine a skewer through the Earth) are pointing neither at nor away from the Sun. In other words, since the Winter Solstice, the North Pole has been arcing its way towards the Sun, and this is pretty much the halfway point.

We had snow last night and today its sunny, windy, and cold. Beginning tomorrow, however, the temperatures are supposed to be climbing into the 50’s for daytime highs. Spring? I hope so. I’m done with winter, I really am.

My Mini Cooper is due to be delivered at the end of this week, so I should have it by Saturday night.

School is going well…Two good classes yesterday and hopefully tonight’s science class will be as smooth. My homework is completed and I know all that I will know. Time to turn it over.

Above are a couple of pictures I like. Very colorful and harbingers of the warming weather, I hope.

The snow has stopped…finally!

I really hope it’s the end of winter. It’s time for green things and flowery stuffs to be poking their heads from the earth.

Anyway, as quickly as it fell it seems to be melting away. The temperature is mild (above 35) and the light breeze is decidedly un-wintry. To counterbalance the previous two b/w pictures, here are two shots from my trip to Greece last year. They were taken with my Canon PowerShot A530, but i think they look alright.

Have a great weekend! I’m off to a meeting tonight in the Town of Millers, but first din-din with mum.
