Horrible 00z ECM and gfs charts this morning. Winter could well be

Yes I had that thought too. There was RASN a couple of days last year in
March but no snow here since 2008 when it snowed 4 days at the end of
the month.

I remember last year on the first Sunday in March I was playing in a
bridge competition and was miffed that it meant I couldn't go on a group
walk that I had wanted to attend. When it turned out to be horrible with
strong gusty winds, driving rain and intermittent sleet and snow I was
somewhat grateful I was indoors all day! I found out later the walk
leader had had a nightmare of a time.
