In like Spring, out like Winter...

Record high season temperatures a little over a week ago, did an about-face two days ago, leaving us with snow, hail and no doubt a lot of frazzled gardeners/farmers as they hope that this unexpected blast of cold doesn't damage either their delicate buds, or their money-making crops.

Honestly? Most Canadians know that this is always a possibility and while many sauntered down beach boardwalks last week in their shorts and t-shirts, there were whispers of "this is too good to be true, I'd put my money on snow next week."

To the pessimists go the spoils.

This is Canada, eh.

Winter isn't done until Mother Nature has one last laugh at our expense.

Don't put the snow shovel away just yet, because the joke is clearly on us.

  1. Meanwhile, at this end of the continent it's WAY too hot for April 1st. Looks like this summer will be a doozy.
